What type of clown? It is fairly common with saddlebacks (( A. polymnus )). For me, with my saddlebacks over the years, it has gone away on its own. Though I did increase water changes.

Is it a new fish? What do you mean "within the hour" ?

It's a black and white one. She has been in the tank for something like 8 months-ish. I meant the pop-eye just happened within the last hour. Anything I can do to prevent it? How did she get it? I think I would wanna die if I got that!!

Ouch! Is all I can say!
