A lfs sells them at 3-5" down here. Make sure you seal all holes and put some weights on your lids.

Oh and make sure you over filtrate. They can be messy eaters and their poo is pretty big.

If it does happen, immediately throw it back in the tank! You'd be surprised how well they can revive themselves. I found my endli out of my tank and underneath a stand that was next to the tank. The gap was only about 1.5" but she somehow managed to fit. I found her when I looked over and saw a little mouth sticking out of the stand. I tossed her back in and she recovered.

my endli too was acting weird when I first got her then I found out that its in their nature to be lazy, right now shes active than ever after a few weeks. and i feed her pellets for 5 days straight 2x a day "recommend hikari carnivore" and the 6th and 7 day varies from fish fillets and blood worms. I have cultured feeders in my tank so its up to her to eat them if she can catch one.
 
nice, and thanks for reccomendation i have changed the gravel to sand and some lava rocks this is how the tank looks now
you can see the fail in pelllets as i try to feed him -_-
