Nursing Anemone back to health

After a nice tank crash of being gone through a nice tank crash - everything is back to normal except my anemone. I've been testing daily for parameters and got them all back to normal. mg 1280 alk 10.9 calc 450 .25 phosphate Ammonia, Nitrate and Nitrite are all 0. SG 1026 temp is 78.5

This guy has been deflated for about a month. He's hiding under this small crevice in the rock. He was completely deflated - flat. He's now inflated to about an inch. Very small bubble tentacles. I've been trying to give him reef chili / mysis spot feedings every other day. What should I do for him? He's hard to spot feed because of the spot he is in, I'm hesitant to move him as he's already stressed as it is. I thought of moving him into a smaller breeder tank so I can spot feed him easier.

Thoughts? Advice ?
Attached are some pics. The first 3 pics were taken Monday 1/19, the rest today. As you can see he's inflated a little.

Wow, now that's a fighter! I say as long as the Reef Chili is getting to him, keep doing what you're doing. I wouldn't worry about feeding him Mysis until he gets better, ie. bigger with tentacles and color returns. I hope he fully recovers, good luck!
