pH is a little high.. But it shoudln't be a problem.. If their eating you are ok .. They may still be adjusting

Have you tried feeding anything else?? What were they eating at the lfs?

 

[natgrapa]

i tried pellets they eat and spit it out right away same with mysis shrimpand i forgot to ask the guy what are they feeding thisguy's when i bought it so do you think im gonna ;lower th PH a little bit???

Leave your pH .. If they are eating at all.. then just wait and see. Give it another couple days.

Ya, leave the ph alone, you will be causing them more stress messing around with it. As far as getting them to eat more, I say just give them some time to adjust to the new tank. How are you putting the feeders in? Are you dumping a couple in at a time or what?
