White Debris on my Maroon Clownfish

Hi

I am new here, this is my very first post.

So I have had my Clownfish for several months now. They've been doing great until I got a Sebae Anenome. The female and the anenome crab both have taken to it. The other day I noticed something like a white speck on the fish and what looks like could be a contact lens over one of its eyes. I brushed this off as territory fighting between it and the anenome crab and that it would heal.

However today i am noticing more of this white on the fish. She seems to be acting normal aside from the white on her, and its only on one side. It is not on the other Maroon clownfish.

Here are two pictures.

I tried my best to get good pictures. Any help is greatly appreciated. It doesn't seem to be a spot, or a string, just like a debris of some sort hanging off
 
Just a wild guess would be some sort of parasitic worm. Try Prazi-Pro, a very safe wormer that can be used in the DT. If this is the only fish with this this stuff, my 2nd move would be to simply hold the fish with a wet towel and remove the stuff with a tweezers. If you go this route, be sure none of the mystery stuff gets back in the tank. A FW dip may cause it to die & fall off too.
