Put him in a smaller tank. I read somewhere that a small fish in a huge tank is.going to have a hard time finding the food. If he's in a smaller tank, chances are he'll come across it.

Small fish, big tank equals stress.

Put him in a smaller tank to pump it up, then transfer to the big tank. Voila!
