So on Thursday I added 10 Harlequin Rasbora who all seem to be settling in well but a little concerned that some may not be eating much.

They very rarely go to the surface for any food apart from the odd one and even then its like he's being brave! I do try and mix up the foods I give. They will try and snatch some of the pellets that float down, but absolutely lot will miss it or don't see it. They won't eat from the substrate so the corys eat whatever drops.

Bit worried that some of the Rasboras are not getting enough food, but equally paranoid about over feeding too. Any ideas or am I worrying over nothing?
 
You may need to give them a few days to get used to where the food is coming from. If necessary, use a turkey baster and soak some food in some water then blow it a little lower into the tank so that the fish underneath can get some.
