Is this enough oxygen for clownfish qt

Yes, to sufficient oxygen.

Is this observation quarantine or is this a medicated quarantine?
 
Not surr if this is enough oxygen
That sponge filter looks to be "enough" for your Clown, but in my opinion it's really never a bad idea to add more aeration, within reason, of course.

I'm questioning why you're asking? How long have you had this fish, and has it been "hugging" that one spot up near the surface? Is the fish's respiration elevated?

Please let us know if this fish seems like it may be in distress; good luck!

I just got this clown yesterday, and its been staying in the corner, but I think its just regular acclimating behavior. It will glide up and down the glass as well, but I was just a bit worried because usually it hovers around the corner right on the surface more. Dimmed the lights a bit to help, and just in case I added a corner hob to help get more oxygen just in case. I tried feeding it today which would be yhe first feeding that I gave it, and even on small pellets and mysis shrimp that I tried, it would spit it out and take some time to go after it. Can’t tell if it’s just because the fish is small or if its stressed. Hopefully tomorrow it has a bigger appetite.

Yes, hopefully just acclimation stress, but in my experience a healthy Clownfish adapts quickly to a new tank, so if it's not acting "right" by tomorrow, I would be concerned 😬

And by "right" I mean begging you for food every time you walk by the tank 🙃
