That is a tiny little odoe!

Wouldn't be concerned if he doesn't eat for a day or two. He needs some time to settle in.

Turn off the tank lights and give him some time and he'll likely settle in faster.
 
Doesn't look good his fins are tight against his body...he floats to the top and doesn't swim much...i dont think hes gunna make it...i think he was too beat up from the lfs but it was worth the try.. i never see these guys for sale in socal...always only on the east coast
