looks like pop-eye. keep water levels good and soak all food in zoe or zoecon which are vitamins and should clear up in a few days. If not then you will need a Q/T to treat with meds. My clown had pop-eye and after about 4 days of feeding mysis soaked in zoe it cleared right up. Just my .02

I completely agree here

Is the fish new? It could have scraped it's eye on the net or a piece of rock. Do a water change and add vitamins to his food, as mentioned.
