Yesterday my clownfish pair were perfectly healthy & ate their dinner! Today when I came home from work & it was time to feed I noticed one of my clownfish did not rush to the food, which is extremely unusual. That is when I noticed she has a little white lump on her face. There are no new additions or any changes to my tank in the past 8 months. I’m wondering what it could possibly be and how to go about treating it! Thank you in advance. I’m sorry the video is bad quality it was the best I could get because she is unusually hiding out, clearly not feeling well :(

I can view the video - the white mark looks inconsequential, but it isn’t because the fish is breathing fast and isn’t eating. However, that does not point to any specific disease. Is the smaller clown still eating? Does your water test out ok?
