So this guy has been doing pretty well, I've been feeding him reptomin and during feeding time, I put him in a small bowl of fresh water along with his food so I don't muck up his tank. I clean the tank and rocks every 2-3 days with hot water and dish soap (no pump). Probably too far in between cleanings as evidenced by he now has some sort of fungi or other growth going on around by his tail. Thin wispy strands of something... any ideas on how to treat that or do I need to somehow find out specifically what it is?

How quickly are these guys supposed to grow anyway? He doesn't really look like he's grown at all in.. what's it been... 3 months? Thanks!
