Ocellaris: Too young to breed?

[LosingSleep]

My male A. ocellaris started showing signs of nesting tonight. This totally caught me off guard. He's 11/8"ish long (still considered juvenile?) and she (knew her role when introduced ) isn't more than 11/2".

He was fanning and aggressively cleaning a rock while she was sizing up a lemonpeel angel that's easily 10x her girth.

Are they just playing house?

I see my clowns doing the same thing from time to time. But I know they're still way too young for that.

At what age do they hit puberty?

 

[this is me]

I think at least 1.5 years old to breed.

Cool, maybe this spring!

I was just going to ask this today.
My clown pair is about a year now and the do the acky shaky and hand together in the toadstool.But there's been no breeding activity yet.

I'm dying to breed something, anything!

Spent two hours (!?) at Jay's watching the bangaii tank. The pair I grabbed are still swimming together.

I would love to get a Bangaii pair. One of my favorite fish.
