Axolotls reguritating bloodworms. WORRIED??

[Axe]

Hi everyone

I recently (1 day ago on halloween) got my 2 new male axolotls, 1 wild type and 1 leucistic. They are both about 6/7 inches long and are in a newly cycled 50 gallon tank. But the problem is that i fed them a cube of frozen bloodworms today and the leucistic ate some and then 5 minutes later regurgitated them, ate a few again then regurgitated them! Im really worried that something is wrong with him. And the wild type didn't eat any that i saw of althought he was right next to the food! Are they just stressed in being in a new tank or is something wrong?! Please help Im so worried my new little ones!

My axolotl ate immediately when I got him, but didn't want to the next few days :/ it's probably just new tank stress, but I'd offer food every day just to make sure they aren't hungry

Offer food avary day, then ensure that anything they don't eat is removed from the tank.
Test the water parameters to make sure that everything is fine for your little ones.
Don't have bright lights on the tank for a while, and give them time to settle in.
Hopefully as they settle into their new home their eating habits will improve.
Best of luck and please keep us posted on progress.
If there are any problems, or if you have any questions, just let us know. :happy:

Try a different food source, he still may also be settling in.
