I would soak vitamins in her food instead. Clowns are tough and she should heal on her own without the aid of antibiotics.

I see this as being normal for a clownfish... I could only think that the spot is its hide away. Nice calming area in the tank where the flow is just right. I believe that HumbleFish is on to something - and I agree.

Thank you again everyone! The male snowflake clown was dead set on getting to the baby while in the little holding tank. Not sure if that helps on gender.. but the baby is now in the qt.. it's 1:30 am and I'm exhausted! Continue to post as the days continue

So my little baby is still alive.. it's just hanging out at the bottom looking all lonely but relieved.. haha.. I'm going to offer him so prestine mysis shrimp with a dash of vitamins after I get home from the doctor today.. my concern now is.. what in the world am I going to do with my little fighter

May be best to just rehome him. Clowns can be brutal towards other clownfish they are trying to drive out.

Hi, I have 2 clowns (almost 6 years now) and they have both hung around vertically in the corner of my 120 gallon since day one. They do eat but ALWAYS go back to the corner... day and night. no spots/disease.. just love the corner. I upgrade to the 120 from a 60 in Feb last year and they migrated to the same corner in the new tank.

That how i had five tanks at on time!

Might have been casted out the group

After months I would say he was pushed out. I started with four clowns and now down to two.

Clowns are territorial and defend fiercely pairing up/establishing a harem. The end of your video shows your domino damsel dominating the space, but you already know that.
I would ditch the damsel, easier said than done.
Maybe time to upgrade to a bigger box
