I noticed today that one of my clown fish has what looks like a white spot on its front, just below it’s mouth.

Its a bit blurry and maybe looks a bit
blue in the photo, but does it look like anything to be worried about? I’m wondering if it just caught it on something or whether it’s something more.

It's likely a fungal infection. These seem to be quite common with some clownfish, especially with percula.

Seems to happen pretty often in perfume, esp onyx Picasso. Some develop a chin bump. Could he fungal, pics are blurry.
