Hi Cazzie,
Which plant have you put in the tank? Elephant Hawkmoth caterpillars like to eat Willowherbs (and other things, possibly Bedstraws?) so it may be that the leaves aren't right for it.
If you can find any of this stuff nearby, Rosebay Willowherb, then that should keep your caterpillar happy.
As rscott has said, the moths are spectacular, well worth the effort to raise them.
