I have no experience with this but recently read it in a forum. It is just one more thing to watch with clowns I guess. There is a thread out there about treatment.

Check your salinity. I have seen fish flash like that.. when it was either too low or too high.

micro bubbles can also irritate their gills, just another thing to check.

hmmm..maybe you can put some sort of degasser? like some sort of floss in front of the water output? I don't know the rio but my deltec does that from time to time right after being cleaned and I put a piece of filter floss in front and tie it with rubber band to hold it in place and that remove some of the bubbles.

How long has this skimmer being in operation?
