If they haven't stored enough calories they can waste away quick. Then they get sick and continue to lose appetite and then all down hill from there sadly. Anyway, not meaning to scare you or anything. I know you said he is eating well so just take advantage of that and try to fatten him up.
He is a little piggy when it come to feeding times, I now feed 4 times a day and mostly on his side of the tank.

A few more new additions to the 8'er

Checker Board Wrasse



Purple Tip Aussi Elegance



Also picked up a Cleaner Wrasse, was worried about it though because my 6 Line Wrasse was being a jerk and chasing it all over the tank but has settled down now.

Tried to get a good pick of the Cleaner but he is a speedy little bugger.

Oh man that last pic is asking for trouble if you ask me! I'd be getting that pump outta there so it can't be plugged in accidentally. I could see it happening to me anyhow: unplug some other item for "just a minute" then plug the wrong thing back in and ....... heard of it happening with LMB's diving into Tunzes and um not quite coming out in one piece.

Checkerboard wrasse looks pretty neat!!
