Clownfish acting funny

Howdy,


My one clownfish has been off the past couple days out of no where. He/she is ~ 3 months old. The clownfish appears to be breathing really heavy the mouth keeps opening and closing at a rapid rate. It practically lays on the rock unless someone walks into the room. When it's time to feed the fish comes to life and eats almost normal. A little less than it used to but still eats for sure. The clownfish has no marks on it whatsoever.


All my other fish don't appear to be having any issues.


Parameters are:


Ammonia: 0

Nitrate: 1

Nitrite: 0

Salinity: 1.025 / 1.026

Alk: 7.6 dkh

Temp 78.6 F

It could be nothing but it looks a lil white around his mouth. It's super faint and again could be nothing. Did you recently glue down a frag in your tank?
 
Not sure. Possible infection. But take advantage of the fact that you have a pair. Do your best to compare them and look for any differences
