My largest appology for my outburst. And true I didn't read all the facts. Shame on me !!! But just to reiterate... the members of this site only want the right thing for your fish. Nothing more
No worries! I understand that’s what you guys want, I came here for that reason and I think I found my answers. Let’s just see how he does!

Okay he has not gone to the bottom of the tank. Is it bad for him to sit at the surface? There is a bit of current but he should’ve been fine to get to the bottom

yes I have a fake rock cave in the bottom that he can go in. I have turned the light off too
Sounds good. Consider hanging towels on the front and sides of the tank to limit his line of sight. I've had this work for me in calming new fish to larger tanks.
