    It doesn't matter how much you feed it or not. They respond to stimulii by stinging it doesn't matter if they are full or empty ;) If you have the proper lighting you don't need to feed it at all. I went over 7 months without feeding mine and it still grew, And yes, they like to stick to the bottom of the tank. You can "slowly" push on their base "foot" being careful not to damge it and it will eventually come loose.
