ADF's

[lainey]

Hi Everyone,

Just joined, and could really do with some advice.

I bought 5 ADF's 3 days ago, they have there own 12 gallon cycled tank. Have stocked up on frozen blood worm and also woman in shop said they would also eat sinking algae wafers, but to feed them blood worm 2-3 times a week. I have the API master test kit as i also have tropical fish tanks and readings are fine (have listed them below). My worry today is was told not to offer them food the first day, offered them a little blood worm yesterday and today but they are not showing any interest, ( have used turkey baster even though they dont share tank with fish) and have dropped worm right in front of them also tried just leaving the blood worm in the tank for a few hours but still no interest. Is this just a normal part of the settling in process or should I be worried.

Thanks.

readings are:
PH: 7.5
Amonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 5.0-10
