Looks like a Cynarina lacrymalis.

The guy at e LFS said he thought it used to be an open brain.

 

[Connie]

It could be that as well. Proper care for both is about the same.

Now the question what can I do to bring it back?

medium flow, medium light, on the sandbed and try to get it to feed daily. You can put the top 1/3 of a 2 liter bottle over it and squirt Mysis slowly on top of it. Let it sit and see if feeders come out. You can let the bottle stay on top of it for an hour or two to keep other inhabitants from steeling the food. It could take a while so keep trying daily.

If it is an open brain needs good lighting flow and good water perameters!!
