One of my two clownfish are breathing heavy and hiding

Got my two clowns 3 days ago everything’s been fine I’m just worried about my darker clown. He’s been breathing really heavy and hiding. He had a hair or something else attached to him. I had to take him out and remove it. I hope that wasn’t a parasite. My parameters have been fine and temp is around 76. My other clownfish is much more outgoing than the other one and seems fine. (I’m a first time saltwater keeper ) I’m using distilled water not ro/di. Please help!!!!

I just have him a dip with Para guard, didn’t realize that I need to do a water change bc I used the tanks water (a gallon) to do so. He’s staying low to the tank and swimming but still breathing hard. I turned off my fluval wave marker so he could swim better.

About 3 hours after that I have him a 2 minute freshwater dip and it was stressful but now he has stopped hiding but still is breathing heavily. He comes out more at night in my opinion
