Looks like your new clown has a swim bladder problem. It may clear up on its own, given enough time. Sometimes the stress of moving fish causes swim bladder problems. The carbon is not toxic and should not harm anything.

How do you fix it

How do you fix it

I have no idea how to fix it; in the only experience I had with that type of problem it cleared up on its own.

Is she always at the surface and cannot swim deeper? Clownfish can be just plain old weird sometimes.
Both of my Snowflake Clowns sleep at the surface every single night But as soon as the lights come up, they are back to normal.
