As I was testing my water prior to my weekly water change I saw one of my clowns lying next to a rock breathing rapidly. My tank is 2 months old and the tests came back as follows:
Ammonia 0
Nitrate 0-2
Phosphate 0.00-0.02
PH 8
Temp 76.4
KH 7.5
Salinity 1.026

These parameters have been stable like this for the past month. Weekly water changes of about 33%.

Any aggression? What other fish do you have? Any peeling or spots on the clown?
 
I think moving him into freshly mixed saltwater might cause more harm - I personally wouldve taken some tank water since your parameters looked good and moved him into a QT tank with some filtration. Don't do that now, hope all goes well!
