Clownfish dying?!

[M3d1C]

I just found one of my 2 snowflake clowns down on the sand bed breathing really heavily. I kind of poked at him with my net and he swims likes he's drunk. My cleaner shrimp does the same thing, starts messing with him and he gets this little burst of energy but doesn't swim productively at all. All my other inhabitants are perfectly healthy and acting normal. So was he all day. Last time he was acting normal was when I fed everyone at 1800 and he came out and ate just fine. I feed LRS Reef Frenzy.

Tank params are:
PH 8.0
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 5 to 10.
Salinity 1.025.
Temp 78.6

Is he just a goner??

Can you get a picture of it?

How long have they been in the tank and have you added any corals or new fish or inverts recently

He died.. no more breathing. He seemed really skinny and discolored. Like pale.

Newest addition was a skunk cleaner shrimp over two weeks ago.

Sorry this happened! Sorry for your loss.

Skinny = internal parasites. API general cure works well for future reference.

Edit: can be combined with frozen food and focus. Can be spot fed in your DT.
