Clownfish lethargic not eating

[jack234]

Hello, I have two clownfish and both of them have started to act weird, one more than the other. One clownfish first started acting lethargic and not eating 2-3 days ago, it just hovers at the bottom corner of my tank. There was some stringy white poop coming out of it when I checked on it yesterday. The other clownfish started to show the same symptoms today but no stringy white poop. poop still looks normal however I’ve noticed that it has been fading in colour, there are some grey spots and the tail has a transparent spot. One of the clownfish I’ve had for 3-4 weeks while the other I’ve had for about 2 weeks now. They were eating fine and was active before. Also the fish were not QT before putting them into the tank since I didn’t have extra equipment nor space

The tank is 2 months old and has some corals but I dip my corals before adding to the tank. Ammonia and nitrites are zero, nitrates are around 5ppm. I’ve been doing water changes weekly as well as changing my filter floss and carbon pads.
