You don't need to do anything. Leave him alone and we will get use to the tank and his surroundings. He eventually will be out all the time. Right now he is just afraid.

I 20 watt bulb is not enough light at all. Look into getting some power compacts as a starter. I must caution you, good aquarium lights can become expensive. Check ebay and the for sale section here for lights.
