Have been observation quarantining this clownfish for 3 weeks, he has a slightly pinkish/redish tone on his white parts and an outline on his middle white body. I’m not sure if this is part of uronema, he has been eating aggressively and well. His swimming behavior is fine, I’m just worried from the colors.

That is a syndrome that I've been calling "CBD" - clownfish bruising disease". I made a post about it here:
