He’s lost all his color since we got him and we have another maxi mini carpet in the same tank doing just great both at being fed a frozen medley. The only major difference is the amount of light they’re receiving I would expect the carpet to move if it wasn’t happy with the amount of light it was getting any ideas on how to help it or if it’s already to late or if it can be moved and nursed back to health I fed it just today and I believe it responded and grabbed the food but it looks mostly white.

It's bleached. Sometimes they don't move on their own. If you can move it into higher light, I would. It should recover with more light and small feedings a few times a week.
