It's a young Ocellaris clown, no way of knowing age. How long is it? FYI do yourself a favor and get rid of that damsel, they are extremely aggressive and will kill other fish. Besides they need according to Live Aquaria a minimum of 30 gal tank. Many people here say 100 or more to help ease the aggression. Your tank at 20 gal is fine for other fish just not that one. IME

Damsel was free with all the live rock, and clowns above 4 inchs. Havnt noticed any aggression yet. But i definatley will look into getting him in my 75 as soon as i get it set up. They were both in the previous owners 40 gallon for a couple years. I know its quite a down size. But again he's eating and has his own spot, doesnt bother with the clown.

Ive always had good luck with yellow tail damsels, they are one of the less agressive damsels ime. But a bigger tank is suggested.
