My new c. Nanoluteus are very small and shy. I ground up some hikari gold, NLS, and veggie rounds to feed them but they don't seem to be eating much if at all. Should I just continue to add a small pinch each day and assume they try foraging for it? They're prob 3/4" or smaller I would guess and the tank is planted so it may be hard for them to see or find the food.

I'd try some flake food. It may float around the tank a little easier and get to their hiding spots. They'll come around. I wouldn't overfeed trying to get them to eat. They could go for a week or more without eating and still be okay.

Especially in a planted tank, they're probably finding lots of things to eat. I'd only worry if they start to look a little thin.
