I have had 6 neon tetra's in my tank now since last night and thay are just sitting in corners, they are now swimming anywhere and not eating is this normal?
 
I think they're just getting accustomed to the tank. In that case, they will be O.K. after a while. What are you trying to feed them?

Are they wiggling in place?
 
Im feeding them the usual flake food.
I have in my tank

2 White Cloud Mountain Minows
1 Male swordtail
1 Femail swordtail
1 corry
6 Neon Tetras

what should i be feeding them?
 
I agree with mikeO, try different foods till you find one they like. But definitely feed a little bit of what everyone likes, for example, in the morning I feed my fish flakes and in the late afternoon I feed bloodworms, so there is a good veriety. I am also thinking of trying brine shrimp. Like your neons, my fish have foods they won't eat. They won't eat tubifex worms. I don't know why, but they just won't eat them.
