Does this clownfish look skinny to you all?

Getting back in the reefkeeping saddle after 15 some odd years. I've had a 20 gallon tank setup for around a month now, and added 2 clowns after the fishless Dr. Tim's cycle finished.
I'm looking at the line down the middle of it's body. I can't see that line in the other one. It eats well, better than the other clown. They both have excellent color and no sign of any physical ailments, aside from the one skinny one I'm referencing here. I'm feeding them a half a cube of frozen mysis once a day. They're both active and exploring during the day, and sleep in a corner of the tank at night right next to each other. I've had them about 2 weeks and got them from a reputable LFS. I do a 25% water change weekly, and the parameters as of yesterday are as follows:

Salinity: 1.024
Alk: 11.2
Calc: 470
Mag: 1230
Phos: 0
Nitrates: 0
Temp: 77.8-79F

Am I making a big deal out of nothing? Any help is appreciated.
