Woke up this morning and my clownfish eye is popping out. He’s the only fish in the tank with his eye messed up and I’m not really sure what happened

Which eye? I can't really see in the picture, is it the left eye?

Generally, issue with a single eye is an injury. These sometimes heal on their own, but if you want to treat it, you'll need to move it to a hospital tank and treat with erythromycin.

Sorry for the late response but yes everything healed up on it’s own thankfully. I haven’t seen anything like that yet and it freaked me out! Haha thank you all so much for the replies
