What is this on my clown?

She looks better than in the last video but still not great.

In the video it looks like either her gill covers are deformed or spread open. The latter would indicate an inflammation or infection of the gills.

Were they both tank raised or wild?

As for the ammonia - it may have been by now oxidized to nitrite.
 
Well she's doing better today. Breathing is still fast but slower. She's off the bottom a bit more but not swimming around the whole tank, just hanging out in that corner. I tried NLS pellets and she attempted to eat them but spit them out (previously was eating them). I then fed a frozen mixed food (mysis, krill, brine, bloodworm) and she ate a good amount. Progress seems to be happening but I'm still stumped.
 
White stuff under gills is almost gone. She is swimming around more and more. Starting to look like when I got her. So very weird
