clown mixing...

Okay to start I know this is a stupid question and I believe I know the answer, however, I am going to ask anyway. Yes, I have researched and yes I listened to the clown fish podcasts (and I am looking foward to the next show on raising the babies!). I had a pair of black perculas, one died from unknown causes and the other has been strong. It seemed lonely (a.k.a. I was probably bored) and wanted her to have a friend. So I dumped a junivile ocellaris in with my black percula. The percula chased him around a bit but now they are friends and the ocellaris often makes the "twitching" movement around the percula (they have been together for 6months or so). I was curious can an Ocellaris and a percula produce viable young? If not would it be okay to pull the ocellaris and put in a small black percula or a normal percula in the tank. I was told a normal percula and a black could produce babies, true?

My other question is can I have a gold stripe maroon in the same tank as either a pair of ocellaris or perculas? It is a 46g with a carpet at one end and a bta at the other. The bta belongs to the gold stripe. At any rate thanks for trying to answer my stupid clown questions

Maroon's are the Mac Daddy of Clownfish (Check out that Cheek Spine ! Yikes!).
The potential for unwanted aggression is 99.9%.
Happy Happy Joy Joy is the goal.

I don't think that perculas and ocellaris can hybridize.
