I need some help with my clownfish, today i was doing my weekly water change and while doing it, i noticed one of my clarki clownfish had an eye that was popping out. All my other fish look fine and are eating well, I could not get a good picture of the affected fish as it was hiding from me, will try to get one later tonight to post. How should I go about treating the fish and popeye?

I would just keep an eye on it for now (no pun intended) a single popeye is usually attributed to injury. If it becomes cloudy and spread to the other eye it's an infection and you'll want to move to a hospital tank to treat :)
