What part of the fish is this?

I would say if something's moving in it and it's certainly dead, it could be a parasite.

But it could also be a worm hitchhiker in your tank that's started helping decomposition.

Oh, that's... lovely. Did you manage to extract it? 

 

How long was the fish dead before you pulled it out? It could be a decomposer, but if it's embedded deeply in the organs, I'd really doubt that. 

 

What symptoms did the fish show before it died, and where did you get it?

Was the clownfish captive-bred? Adult or no? 

 

Sounds like quite possibly a parasite. Do you have any other fish in the tank?

Possibly. A scope ID would be needed for confirmation. There is a good video here: http://www.mesa.edu.au/marine_worms/marine_worms03.asp

I see movement in the vid, but nothing that looks like another organism.

 

Did I miss something?
