I have two blind guys in a tank by themselves now, as they were bugging the other fish in their community tank. In the old tank, when it was feeding time the other fish would alert the blind guys to the food. One would consistantly eat at the surface, the other would scavange the bottom. Now that they are on their own, Im not sure if they are aware there is food or not...I have tried splashing the water around at the surface like another fish would, but only helped once. What can I do to help them find food? Am I being too paranoid about this?!

Maybe I'll seperate them and put one in each of my community tanks...

Blind cave fish have an out-standing sense of smeel. They will find the food.

PS-- Splashing will only scare them.
