He’s had it for about two weeks. Not velvet, ich or brook already treated for. It’s the B&W clownfish. But the PJ cardinal is also abnormally pale.

 
I can't see anything unusual in the video. Can you get a photo of what you're seeing?
Yes I can try. In the video, at 5 seconds when the fish looks up, you can see a blemish on the white part of his face. That’s what I’m talking about. It’s on all of him in different places.
 
@DLHDesign here are the pictures. I was thinking a secondary bacterial infection caused by the velvet he just got over.

Thanks for the pics. I'd agree; looks bacterial. May go away on it's own as the fish's immune system recovers from the treatment, or it may require medication. You could try a dip in Ruby Reef Rally if the fish is looking to be struggling. From the video, that does not seem to be the case? If the fish is eating, I would be sure to give it high-quality food (soaked in a vitamin supplement like Selcon or the like) and observe it for a day or two. If there are any signs of it getting worse, I would dip in Ruby Reef Rally and then look towards other treatments.

Ok thanks. He seems to be fine.
 
It's a frozen blend; yeah - that's better than a flake or pellet in this case.
Soaking it in Selcon (available on Amazon if you can't find it local) will help as well. Just a drop or two per cube as you defrost it works.
