when i woke up and checked the tank this morning my Cinnamon clown had developed a swollen eye and a sort of film over it also the same thing on one side of his mouth, the same side, nothing has been added or changed recently could this just be a fight? Or he bumped into something while sleeping? He seems fine eating and swimming as usual. Any ideas? Thanks guys :) @Humblefish

Was just inspecting the fish and seems like the film is going away only half of what was there yesterday is left so I'm gonna hold off on hospital and see if he can beat this I feel like maybe he bumped into something poor little dude

One eye usually just denotes injury. You can help relieve the swelling by dosing Epson salt @ 1 tablespoon per 5 gallons of water. Epsom salt is just magnesium sulfate, so it is reef safe.

Perfect thank you so much I'm glad I can provide him with a little relief the white film has almost completely subsided but he has a slight injury on the side of his mouth so I think maybe a fight
