I've never had a problem with this, not sure that it even is hlle bit this last time I bought some mysis shrimp without vitamin and garlic in the mix, and they don't seem as happy, and for the first time I'm seeing these black spots..? Idk Amy advice would help, I'm thinking either, get better food and hope it helps? Or get done garlic guard, or it is possibly done other disease

Black Spots, might be Black Marine Ich.
Pics would help.
Or if your clownfish is hanging out in other stinging corals it could be Hypermelonization. If its this one, then not to worry, they seem to get used to it, or adjust.

Curious as to where you got the term Hypermelonization.

Sorry for not posting pics accidentally hit submit... But yes I have frogspawn,elegance, and hammer, and it's only on the clownfish right now.. But I never see them in the corals... And she would not stop moving for me to take a pic so it's all blurry

Yup, looks like shes getting into the other corals on ya. She will be fine. Doesn't look like Black Ich to me.
