I got home today and was looking at my clownfish and noticed I could slightly see an outline of the skeleton of my clownfish through its side. Idk if it’s anything actually in need to worry or just under feeding, heck even my strong lighting could be doing it since she’s white

To my eye, that just looks like the light shining through the fish. Fish aren't completely opaque sometimes. I think that's just the skeleton being normal, like how we can see that darker patch where all her organs are.

If you want an extreme version, look up either glass catfish or X-ray tetras. They're doing their damndest to turn invisible.
 
Fish looks to be a good weight at this angle, so I’d agree this is just how light works.
