Hate to break it to ya but that fish is going to starve in your system. They need mature tanks with filamentous algae to graze on. They don't eat prepared foods. Sorry, man.

Can't quite tell from the pic, does it look like the polyp is covered with a white film or do you see any slug / nudibranchs around the polyps? From the pics it appears that most are not fully extended which they should be normally - zoa's usually don't like direct flow so make sure that your power filter output is not going directly on them. As for the fish, is it eating? Usually when I get a wild fish and its not eating well - I try frozen / live first and then eventually if I'm lucky I get it to eat / supplement flake. Make sure you change your water if you are feeding cyclo or any other frozen food since it will foul your water fast in such a small tank.
