It might not necessarily be a fuel per say but a biogenic compound that is necessary for the ships to work. The technology is partly organic and only works with interaction with prawns. Why it also turns people into prawns is a mystery but it is alien technology and thus you can't really say how it works.

there were several others- why the secrecy making the fluid.

Well the human government probably doesn't want them to take a space ship full of possibly useful alien technology away. Probably better safe than sorry. He doesn't want to be threatening in any way.

how did they actually get back on the mothership after the pilotship crash?

They interfaced with the mother ship and used a tractor beam

why would the alien be so neutral to the human after he found out everything and have such a scene yet leave all the aliens on earth.
don't get me wrong, highly entertaining movie.

He is a nice alien who cares about his people and other races. Also he needs the human to get back his space fuel. Probably impossible to get 1.8 million aliens back on the ship. That would take years. They were starving so probably no food on board. Ship probably damaged. Probably wanted to make a fast getaway before he got blasted out of the sky.
