Did you see any aggressive behavior from the tang towards the clown?

I would continue to observe it for awhile and let's see if it will eat tomorrow. Watching for infection.

The tang and clown kinda dance a little but not aggressive. Only while eating that’s why I’m worried. If it was the tang what should I do?

Looks like he could have a swim bladder injury.
If it is, I dont know if it can heal on its own, or even something done about it.
If you have a QT I would use it.
If its tang agression and it pumels it again it could be the last time.
