Scared clownfish

[Oliverw17]

Hi,
So i was cleaning my tank and when i was in there i accidentally knocked a piece of rock and it fell. Now i dont think it hit my female clown but since then she has flared out her gills, she has ate since so i was wondering was she just scared and making herself look big or has the rock hit her and caused harm? Any ideas

Can you try to get some pics?

Pics would help, even if the rock hit the clown it wouldn't cause that. Likely just from the stress of stuff getting moved around

I tried but its not easy being midnight clowns even with the light on, its something that you can really only make out from the back or the front, side profile doesnt give much to see.. i might be over reacting but i just like to be informed
Cheers

She was looking better today but when i went to feed, the male started chasing her and now shes hiding in the rockwork, its as if hes trying to assert dominance

Sounds like it could have been an injury from aggression between the two.

The male could be trying to take control. If this continues it could potentially kill/starve the female and will turn female
