My clowns have been acting wierd my pair has not laid eggs but I can see that she is pregnant. They also have been swimming in the open, breathing regularly but heavyer breaths and not eating. My other female in. The refugium is also acting the same not eating and breathing heavy. She as also starting to swim vertically. What should I do?

That they stopped eating simultaneously is a bit bizarre and would speak to something systemic, whether it is temp swimgs, stray current, a disease or pathogen, or parameters out of whack.
 
I don't know but by looking at the picture. I see spots on the clown fish. Might have ick or something.
 
Sadly the one in the refugium passed away. The white spots were not ick they were just stains on the glass. My water parameters are fine except for ph and all which is a little low 8.0 and 6kh.
