They seem to be alive, but they are just moving around the bottom of the tank. When I take a dropper and suck one of the ones at the bottom up in it and then replace it back in the tank, he just goes back down to the bottom. Whats going on with them? Are they all dying? I have been feeding them once a week, so I have only fed them once so far.    Report
