There's a little bit of info on this page about them. And the different temperaments; I guess you have an NT variety, lol.

Mine doesn't use her water bowl ever. I have a large bowl in her enclosure big enough for her to fully submerge and even swim in to a certain extent and she has not once been in it to my knowledge. I feed her weaned rats weekly and she is a food driven psycho lol. She will launch out of her tub at the first thing she sees. And if I hold the rat away from her she will literally follow me around in pursuit if I were to take it so far. I can honestly say she is my most exciting snake to work with. If this was an animal that got as large as retics there is no way I could work with her alone safely. That being said she's the perfect size animal to work with and not have the worries that come with a giant chasing you around the room.

Have you ever tried putting feeder fish of appropriate size in the water?

No I've never tried fish. The bowl is large enough to sustain them and I would be suspicious of feeding mass bred fish. Not knowing if they contain parasites I've known this to be an issue in aquarium settings.
