Keep an eye on him. The fish that died most likely died of Brooklynella (clownfish disease) because of how quickly he died. There's a possibility it was transmitted. Even though it's called clownfish disease, it can go to other species of fish too if there are any stressors in the tank.

If one doesn't have a QT tank, at a minimum all clownfish should be given a freshwater dip with Methylene Blue to prevent Brook from entering a display tank. If you are finding any fish gasping for "air", especially at the surface, you now have Brook infestation. The best way of treating for Brook is a Formalin bath (37% formaldehyde, not the "reef safe" treatments that are only 3~5%).
