This AM we woke up to one of our 2 clowns resting on the sand kind of tipping to the right side....same side we noticed large brownish colored spot under pec fin. She will get up and swim occasionally, in short bursts and then go back to sand. Her breathing is also fast. She has been eating and acting fine until this AM. She has even been more mischievous than usual by exploring the rocks more this past week. She has not been rubbing or scratching. All our water chemistry and temp are in range and stable. We just added the clowns 3 weeks ago as our first set of livestock in our new tank. We have no other fish, just invertebrates. The other clown is fine and no spots are on him. We aren't sure what is wrong in order to help her...any ideas? Thank you!
 
After looking at the fish today looks like there is a brownish spot on the middle white strip and also noticed its poop was white. From what have read looking like a internal parasite. Will prob. move to qt tank and try some meds. Not sure exactly what ones tho.
