I agree with Doug - good job with rehabilitating him, and I am glad to see he is in your hands now. He looks pretty good to me.

I am sticking by my original thoughts - maybe a little more food; less misting; and a bit more privacy. A deeper (taller), heavy ceramic water bowl will help with keeping the substrate out of the water.

I don't think he is lookng for a mate because most males go off feed (or at least eat less and less often) until they get it out of their system, so to speak...
