Need gig treatment help

Funny you should ask. He really has shown no signs of deflating or even purging after the initial night last Friday night. He will be going in to my dedicated anemone tank which is a 24 x 24 x 12 and has no anemones in it right now. I am planning on moving him in tonight and will post pics once he is in. I really did try (as you can see by the pics lol) to keep him on a coffee mug, but it just didn't work out that way. He climbed up on the side glass yesterday and has not moved since. I hate to peel the foot off the glass, but I am not getting a say in the matter. I am just really thankful that we have medicine now to treat sick and delicate nems such as these and am really thankful for all of the advice that people give on this site!
 
Just wanted to say that the gig looks incredible and I am optimistic about its recovery. I would post some pics but the blue led looks so bad on an iPhone that its more embarrassing than anything. Anyway, I will post some pics on Sunday when I get back in town and let you guys see when the whites are on. Thanks for everything!
 
Just a quick update. He still looks good, but one thing I have noticed about this particular gig is he does not like flow. He will def. move around until there is hardly any flow on him at all. I don't know if he might still be adjusting to the tank or if he just doesn't like it.

 
Its a Mcculloch and even though it's not a natural pair, I think she still looks pretty cool in it. I decided to try my hand and feed it a little while ago. I gave it a tiny piece of fresh tuna medallion and the feeding response was VERY slow. It did appear however, to eat the piece which is great news. I have never had an anemone this far bleached before so I am still nervous about the long term survival.
