Newly added nems often won't eat because they have been handled too much and have lost their sting/stickiness. You have to wait for that to come back. It usually takes mine about 3-5 days if I have handled it a bunch like when I moved, or when I have pried it off a rock. I don't think there is much you can do until it starts feeding. I think it's just stressed right now, and may or may not recover. What kind of lighting do you have? How close is it to the light?
