Looks like he tried to host something and got some stings. Any anemones or euphylia in your tank?

Agreed. Stung by anemone or other coral in attempt to host it.
You can add some Prazipro to tank as clown is likely lightly stressed from sting and it should recover in a few days

Zoanthids can do this too, clowns sometimes will try to host anything. Mine would host sheets of algae during a cyano outbreak.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
