Treatment for clownfish intestinal parasite?

Dear Crew, I have a pair of clownfish, Amphiprion percula- wild caught, purchased 10 days ago and residing in my QT. After an initial day or two of poor eating, they did a great job gobbling down pellets and frozen food. Then, after I failed to vacuum uneaten food for a couple of days, there was a brief ammonia spike (fixed with a massive water change from my main tank and a good cleaning). And then, alas, two days ago the female has gone on a hunger strike and her feces have turned clear and stringy. I’m fairly certain she has an intestinal parasite. No skin lesions, no respiratory distress.
