Found him barely attached to back glass (located behind a big rock)! Put him for now in my self built nem box. What are survival techniques, any food & how do you judge his appearance now? Tks!

Sometimes when they want to move because they are unhappy where they are, they will inflate and float with the current to a new location. What kind is it?

As long as your water parameters are good, I wouldn't worry. It's usually when they start bleaching or withering away that its worrysome. Also a gaping mouth isn't a good sign. Yours (at the moment) just looks like he wants to move.

I had trouble feeding tiny pieces of rods too. It would take them but then lose it before it could consume. I now target feed tiny pellets or reefroids. If you can find it, try soaking the food in selcon.
