TRY CRICKETS TO BREAK THEM OUT OF IT

Arowans fast ... they are sometimes moody.. not sure what makes them fast except in your case it is just due to stress.. they have not settled in their new home yet.. 9 days is nothing ... mine just came off a six week fast .. and after that long only eating a half of jumbo shrimp a day.. stomach so shunken.. have patience,.. and try every now and then.. take out uneaten food. put a weight on the top.. they are jumpers especially when stressing... and tape up holes on top.. they will come around.. be patient.

I think they're still trying to adjust to your larger tank. Give that time. A lot of fish can live without food for 2-3 weeks. Beyond that, I'd start suspecting what is happening. You could always add garlic on their diet to persuade them to eat.

Don't worry youself over this, they will eat within the next couple of days.
