Thats definitely a tomato. And that little black line on the leading edge of the pectorals mostly confirms it. Some tomatos are more red with darkening and others are orange. I have a larger female tomato that is red with lots of darkening and a small male that is totally orange.
The facial shape and forehead also match tomato clown better than anything else.
It is actually possible to match different species of clowns (although I dont recommended it, hybridizing isnt really the greatest idea. It just blends the genetics of stuff over time and you lose purity (like all the mutt dogs we have nowadays - no offence to anyone - but you get the idea...). I have an unlikely trio of clowns... the two tomatoes I mentioned and a cinnamon clown between their sizes). I certainly do not plan on breeding these clowns or ever selling the babies. I'd feed them to my other fish.
Cheers,
Chris
