I did have a fan running for a couple of days which only cooled the temp to about 21 or 22*C, which really wasn't much, and my mum had a freak-out today whilst I wasn't home that the fan motor was burning out, but I think she was just exaggerating.

At the moment there is just a false plant in the tank, but so far I haven't got them anything solid to hide in, but they are kept in a room that is dark 95% of the time as I know they don't handle bright lights well.

I have been feeding a mixture of live meal worms, frozen brine shrimp, and frozen blood worms.

Do you recommend I fridge them for a couple of weeks until I cycle the tank properly? how long could I keep them fridged? and would I still need to feed them?
Also, to cycle the tank could I put a couple of feeder fish in there?

thanks for your help guys
