Hi guys I just put 2 clowns in my tank yesterday, the tank has just been cured of white spot.

they don't seem to swim around much, but neither did my last lot for the first few weeks. The larger one just stays at the anemone. while the small one (pictured) just sits at the front of the tank.

My concern is because they seem to be breahing quite fast and the smaller one has these white spot under his eye. (i hope its not white spot.)

My levels are
amonnia 0
nitrite 0
nitrate 0
PH 0

what could be wrong?
 
sorry guys here is the pic

I suggest you get a copy of Joyce Wilkerson's book Clownfishes if you can. You might also research WetWebMedia. I know there is alot of information in the archives there regarding clownfish illnesses. If you didn't say the ammonia is zero, I would have suspected that. Fast breathing can be due to ammonia.
