mines always under his rocks rarley on his dock they usually stay under water

as long as he can hide away he should be fine.

mine doesnt even use the dock he uses the topof his filter haha

o0o0 i can't help with that one sorry, i feed mine blood worm and crickets stuff like that because i have a few lizards,

it should have some sort of guide? wouldn't use a time guide ( like as much as it can eat in 5-10 mins ) as he may not eat.. you could always put a small amount in see how much he eats then remove the rest maybe?

sorry for the unhelpfulness :P
