My Julii cories (4) have recently been added to my 30g long and have been in for 2 days. They come out of their hiding places but won't eat! I have tried ffeding bloodworms and a bottom feeder round. They're about 1 3/4 inch long. Any ideas on what the problem is?
 
Maybe they're just nervous. Try feeding at night time. As that's when they are usually active ;)
 
try to feed some smaller foods like NLS small fish pellets or frozen brine shrimp
 
Give them a couple more days. If all is well with your water parameters they will come around. If you're not pushing the limit, you can add four more. They do great in large numbers.

^+1 give them a bit of adjustment time. Since they are catfish, scented food will help them be more comfortable. Feed after lights off.
