Try giving him a freshwater dip.
fill up a fairly large bowl with freshwater (maybe add a little salt to buffer up the pH). when you've done that, net your clown and let him sit in the water for around 5 minuets.
If he starts to struggle move him back to the main tank quickly.
This treatment is used on parasite and fungus, which I don't know if you fish has, but it would be a good Idea to do one dip and see if he improves at all.
