Well I have only had him for a week so I think I will just let him wander around a bit, if that is what he decides to do. If it is still at the back of the tank in (say) a month I might start playing around with flow and stuff to try to get him to move.
Can be tricky, though, because I did this before to get my sebae to move and it ended up in an even worse spot. The sebae outgrew my tank so I had to sell him.
I have not direct fed the RBTA yet. Once he is in a spot where I like him, THEN I will do the direct feeding thing. Otherwise he will have to make due catching whatever he can out of the water column. I have seen him (cough) excreting so I know he is getting something, but no extra treats until he is where I want him.
I think yours looks nice where it is but if you just got him he is likely to move around somewhat on his own. They can be really stubborn to get out of a place they like!
