Haddoni vs. BTA

I have a Haddoni and a BTA, my Haddoni is doing fantastic, eats like a pig and looks great. My BTA is doing very poorly (stopped eating and stays deflated more often than not) much to the chagrin of my clowns. Water parameters are all within normal limits. Tank is 75 G and I run Aquactinics 5x54 T5 lights 10hrs a day. Any ideas on how to perk up my BTA?
 
These two are notorious for doing poorly with each other, at least IME. Not to mention that your tank is rather small to attempt 2 different species. The haddoni alone can grow to take up a large portion of that tank. At the very least, I would begin running carbon heavily and do some water changes. You may want to also consider getting rid of the BTA.
 
Thanks, I actually would like to get rid of the Haddoni since his voracious appetite has cost me a few fish but i am not sure how to do this.
