I’ve had this clown about a week now and noticed these black spots forming on its sides I have no coral or anemones at the moment any ideas what it could be
 
Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Sorry about your Clown. You may have tried to post a picture or video, but it didn't seem to come through 🙂

Please post video using white light intensity, no blues and I suspect coral/anemone stings known as hypermelanization
