It may still be in the ambiguous 'neither sex' stage if it is really young and not around any other clowns. It will however generally go straight from the neither to a female if it is allowed to mature on its own in the tank. So you might be better off calling it a her, IMO

I have been planning this pairing for over a year and a half waiting for my female to get fairly large. I then got a little (less than a year old) ORA to make sure the size difference was adequate. I think this size difference is the key to a smooth intro. The male almost immediately submitted and did the little seizure dance as he had no chance at all of competing with something at least three times bigger.
