Tortoises really don't do well with change. Just go over all of your tortoise-keeping procedures and make sure everything is as it should be, then give them some time to get used to the new area. A week or so, maybe.

They do take time to adjust to change..But I've seen a few pics of your new enclosure. It's a little on the barren side IMO. I'd add lots of foliage (real or fake) so they have more cover.

I agree with Heather and also bury their dishes level with the substrate. Wet the coir and pat it down tightly too.
