When I got it at 1/4" it would run away from any live prey, too, but once it was settled it would take pre-killed. Once it reached about just under 1/2" it started taking down small crickets and/or roaches and now at just under 1" tackles prey like a Rugby pro, lol.As for hiding, although it was always provided with something to hide under and substrate easy for digging in, it never bothered with it and just sits out in the open. I hope this will continue until old age, fingers crossed.</blockquote>
