Growths on clown fish

I noticed today that my smaller clown fish has some growths on it. It seems to be only on the white stripe closest to its face. There are no growths on the bigger clown. Any ideas what it may be? Here are some photos.

My clown just had this exact same thing last week. I posted it on here, with pics, and nobody could tell me what it was.

Mine had only been in my tank for a week when it developed a white "bubble" directly in the middle of his forehead, a little lower than the one yours has. After about 3 days, the bubble "popped" and went away. His color remained good, and he ate aggressively throughout.

That was about a week ago, and he is still doing great. The spot is completely gone, and he is acting normal. I switched to flakes with garlic, which my LFS advised me to do.

Good luck! Let me know how he does.

Nice pics. How did you get them so clear? I constantly have trouble getting good shots of my fish because they are so active.
