Well, it doesn't sound good, but it could get better. Few questions that will help us help you:
What sort of lighting do you have? What lighting was on the tank they came from? How long where they in fresh water? How long did it take to transport from the old tank to the new? What are your water parameters? Also, are you able to take a pic?
