I have a small clownfish in my 55 gal reef and he has some blotchy white patches on his body. Hoping it’s not Brook but can someone please tell me? There are 3 other clowns in the tank as well and 1 shows some slight aggression to him. Could it just be aggression? Pics below

While doing a water change my tiny male clownfish, around an inch, went into the siphon and traveled into the bucket. I didn’t even notice until it already happened. He is swimming fine, do you think he will be okay? Is there anything I should look for?
