A pic or detailed description would really help, but they're probably just pods.

Yep, pods are good. They may not be of any particular benefit in your case as I don't think your clown will eat them, but they're certainly not bad.

One clown in a 14 is aproaching full. Maybe somthing small like a firefish?

Or a Royal Gramma. I had a 10 gal nano once with a P. ocellaris and a royal gramma. They were very cool. No aggression but occasional flaring of the gills from the gramma every so often.

Firefish or Purple Firfish. Just keep the tank covered good, they can jump out of holes that are just as big as they are!

definitely sounds like copepods.

Get a red head goby and a green stripe goby. Also a red head pseudochromis is a fun fish too...
