Absolutely not. People who breed clowns get pairs all the time that have the same parents. They aren't like humans and it'll be perfectly fine. A percula and ocellaris may also breed making percularis clownfish...but to me it looks like you have two ocellaris clowns.
okay, cool. hope I don't have babies though, don't know what I'll do with them. this is my only tank.

the last pic u posted they do look like ocellaris but as said above percs and ocellaris seem to get along together.
on a side note if they do lay eggs usually the fry don't survive in the aquarium. people who want to raise them usually set up another tank and sytem to hatch fry. very intensive time consuming process also.

Very good idea to get a second. The interaction between them will give you hours of viewing pleasure. I myself think keeping singles are fine but they display more natural behavior when kept in pairs, the way they are meant to be. Great looking fish.

thanks everyone for your advice. I am happy that I got the second one. they seem very happy to have eachother, and the one is not banging on the glass like a fly at the window anymore. It will be interesting to find out what part of the tank they decide to call home.

You should not keep more than one pair per tank. There is not reason you shouldn't add another.
