Does it have excess mucous or rashes? How is the respiration rate?
 
Doing any scraping at all or being picked at by tank mates?Sorry for so many questions-trying to rule out some possibilities.

Clownfish can darken with age/maturity.

No have a puffer but stays away from him and they get along so far and not not running against anything
 
Any changes to the tank? Moving things around, cleaning, adding new items (fish, rocks, etc)?

My Clownfish loves his rock. If I come near it to clean he starts to throw a temper tantrum and sulks at the bottom for a few hours.

I did a 18g water change Thursday but never seemed to bug him before that's about all I've done
 
Do you have any garlic supplements?It may entice him to eat more.
 
Couldn't hurt. If there is something wrong with him then getting him to eat would be a big step in the right direction!
