Im confused
 
if its jsut those 2 u should have no problem ones gonna take the female roll and the other is gonna be the male and for all u know u might be a daddy when they hit mature age

There is no B&W percula . A B&W Ocellaris and a O&W Ocellaris will be fine as they are the same species with different color morphs . This is why I hate the term "false percula" that is used for Ocellaris clowns as it can confuse many people .

Dawnman is correct on the names...to answer the question...allways risky putting two seperate clown species in a tank together...may work for a while....unless its a large tank...a 75g, imo is not big enough to take the risk....

Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly.... we should be able to house 1 B&W Ocellaris and 1 O&W Ocellaris with out fighting since they are the same species. I know we are limited in "fish" space so we are trying to research as best as possible to not make a stupid mistake OR over crowd the aquarium..
Thank you,

Yes, you can keep A. ocellaris together regardless of the color....as long as only one is a female...
