Fish growth questions

So I've had a pair of clownfish for about a year and a royal gramma for about 6 months... Now I got the clowns as juveniles and one as taken female role and gotten bigger than the other... My ? Is I have seen some ocellaris in fish stores that are monsters! Mine are still small compared to them....is this normal or should they be bigger by now?

Takes time and can depend on the breed.

How big is your tank?

I feed my fish a wide variety of foods...frozen, flake, pellets, home made seafood mix and several varieties of each. They are really healthy and growing well. I'm not sure that just a couple of kinds of food is enough to achieve what you are looking for.
