I would post this one in the clown/anemone forum, you might get some hits on it.

They are different species, so I doubt it. By definition different species don't produce viable offspring. Occasionally different species manage to mate (horses and donkeys, for example) but it's rare. In addition, different clown species generally act very aggressively toward one another, so I doubt they'd ever get in the mood.

To actualy have offspring, no they are two different breeds of clown. To be in the same tank together? Again a no on that unless they were both introduced to the tank as juveniles. They MAY get along as adults if introduced as juveniles together. They wont mate though.

Viper took me to school on this a while back. Search Percularis. Aparently they can mate and produce offspring. Cant say if the offspring would be sterile though.
