Not sure if your reply was meant to be sarcastic, but the question was pertinent to the problem. If the clowns had brook, it is highly contagious and kills quickly. Your lfs misled you with regards to the diagnosis. Diseases in captive fish are largely treatable. Sadly, a lot of lfs don't know how to treat or hope the fish sell and the buyer then sucks up the loss. If you recently purchased the clowns, they likely infected the whole tank.
Do you have a quarantine tank you can use for future purchases. It's really the only way to prevent illness from entering your main tank.
