why has my clown fish gotten so dark?

Any idea why my male clown has darkened up so much? The female I bought with him has remained the way she's been from the start. He looked that way when I got him as well. Are they the same kind of clownfish?

You can see the female in the background

Do you think he is just a very young black and white clown and will continue to change? I've yet to see any others that look like him.

Looks like he is getting his mature colors of b/w. love my b/ w clown.

Do you think Hell be completely black and white when he matures? I didn't buy him as a black and white...certainty not complaining though

He looks like he's changing to me. The body changes first, face changes last. My b/w still has a hint of orange at his lips.
