I have a Ocellaris Clownfish and a tomato clownfish I had them for 3 years already. I just notice my ocellaris clownfish has a fat belly now a week ago was not like that she has trouble staying up but she is swimming still. Can they both have babies? Or something going on. I been feed them flakes never done that before, but they seem to love them. I have other fish and they are doing fine. Can someone help me out. Thank you!

If they were both female you would see a rather significant increase in aggression. While it may be possible to have two females in the same tank, they would've have to of been both older clown fish when introduced. At this point the tomato would've taken out the ocellaris, I believe. What sizes are they?
