RBTA - need help!

oh, whatever I do it won't be for at least a week! As always with this hobby, I'm assuming going slow is the way to go. :) I'll keep the powerhead trick in mind. Thanks.
 
Update with pictures:

I came home from work, and the RBTA was in the front of my tank. So, I finally have the opportunity to really see it, and incidetally, take photos. Clearly there is something wrong with it:

What's going on with this thing, and is there anything I can do to make it better?

Thanks again for all your help!

Do you have any clowns in the tank with it? They will keep it stimulated and protect it against anything that could be bothering it. I would try a clown or two.
I've seen them comeback from looking worse than that. I have a magnifica that was totally white (bad thing, no zoanthelea(SP?)) took about 6 month for him to come back now he looks awesome!
Remember anything that eats and sh!^s out of the same hole has got to be tough!!
 
well, i think it may be dead... it has completely let go of the rock, and is now just sitting on the sand bed, with the foot up in the air and the "mouth side" facing down onto the sand... it hasn't moved since I came home from work... that's dead, right? Any advice would be appreciated.
