What Is Wrong With My Fish

[omega59]

the mouth i don't think is swollen it just looks it because it's open.

I'm not sure if he hurt himself. I've searched in Google and someone else had this problem too. but no solution was said. the only mention was that the jaw locks on clown fish and you can possible physically put it back.. but I'm no expert in to doing that. Has anyone else heard of this?

Yes you can put the jaw back in place but I don't know how you do it.
You have to wrap the fish in a cloth soaked in tank water.
Is the mouth still pale.

Do a search online.

i would be extremely cautious about doing this, as you may do more harm than good.

this is a last resort and only when you know that that is indeed the problem.

yes after reviewing that website and watching the video, that is exactly how mines looks and what it is doing. the soloution was the unlock the jaw, i'm no expert to do that.. poor guy what can i do

Try a thread in tropical discussion to see if any members have done the procedure.

Ok.
If the mouth still bad I would risk preforming the precedure by trying to put the jaw back in place.
Wrap the fish in a cloth soaked in tank water, Ask someone to hold the fish down for you.
