I quickly opened the power head n he bolted out but I did get a good look at him n he looked pretty beat up. But I didn't see any blood or parts missing. He's now just hiding in one of my live rock but seems alive for now. Should I take him out n use melafix on him in a seperate tank or let him be? Here is a pic of him in all his glory!

That's very common, sadly.. Did your powerhead not come with a grill to cover the front? Also, is there a specific need for you to shut off your powerhead during feeding?
