Clownfish

What are my clownfish genders
Assuming you only have two clownfish, and assuming that they’re mature (i.e. adults, not juveniles) the big one would be female, and the smaller one(s) would be male (they’re protandrous hermaphrodites, and the dominant [read: bigger] one in a pair/harem is female; to my understanding, lone clownfish turn female too).

If they are the same size, the more aggressive one may cause the one being harassed to change gender.
