Congratulations
is this your first split? There is nothing aside from keeping your water as pristine as possible. You may already know you can't feed it until it reforms a mouth.

Yes, usually so, but not always a need for concern. (Sometimes so, but not always.) That stress could be from many different things. Something as simple as a large water change where the parameters were slightly different, or having too big of a meal, or maybe a fish nipped at it ..or... or what ever.

He has been in there in for bout a year. He I feed him mysis shrimp with the fish. I was about to do a water change, I have put that off for a few days till the 2 parts get settled. The 2ed one is doing good so far he has moved about 6 inchs to the side and opened up.
