Good news but I don't think you are out of the woods yet. Their main diet is the tiny inverts you see them picking at on the rocks. If you don't have lots of pods, pile a few of those 1 inch smooth blue stones or something similar in see for freshwater at the lfs that provide a hiding and breeding place for the pods.
If they don't get proper nourishment they start getting skinnier and eventually die.
