If my babies aren't eating, are they just too cold? I have supplied red worms and feeder guppies. Any suggestions?

What's the temp in your tank? Needs to be between 75 and 80. Are they common snappers or alligator snappers? Commons will eat red worms and fish, but you would probably need to kill the fish first. They are not the fishermen that alligator snappers are. Also, commons will usually take reptomin with no problem. Baby alligator snappers tend to be more finicky and may only take fish (reptomin if you're lucky).
This has been my experience, others on the forum may have more to add.
