Bowser didn't eat yet

about 2 weeks ago I put Bowser out in the stock tank I got for him. The first day I put a couple pieces of squash and a piece of romaine in there and the next day it looked like he bit the romaine. I tried putting frozen fish, cichlid pellets, a piece of hamburger, and his favorite foods mice and earthworms in front of him but he didn't bother with any of them. Some I left overnight. I have goldfish living in there and about a week ago I got 5 or 6 snails and 3 crayfish to live in there so he can eat whenever he wants. I haven't noticed any of them really missing yet. Is there anything else I can do? Will he be allright not eating for now? I thought maybe it could be from the temperature change that he cooled down and slowed down a little. The waters been staying around 60 most of the time. Some days it was in the low 70's and the coolest was probably 55. The weather's been changing alot the past few weeks. I hope he'll be alright, any responces will help.
