I just got them two days ago and they are so cute, less than an inch in length i puth them with my fire mouths (Also less than an inch , all three) my green severum(Whos only about three inches long and 2 inches tall) and my 4 inch pleco in a 29 gallon with rocks and caves and plants every were they are very active day and night i love them. But now for the questions, What all should i give them to keep them happy and is there any way to hear them talk with out taking them out of the water? I just don't like to shock my fish like that, the pleco doesn't care if i pick him up and neither does jack my severum.

To my knowledge, they wont "talk" unless in distress - which is usually only when you remove them from the water.
To keep them happy - lots of caves and hiding spaces (they love to hide!)
They are mainly carnivores so enjoy meaty foods, and pellets such as "Hikari carnivore". Or frozen / live bloodworm etc. now and again
 
yeah i have been giving them sinking shrimp pellets and blood worms they even go for the algae disks my plec eats, they have tons of caves and little plants they dig up and hide under one kept burying himself under the gravel in the front it was kinda cutehere is one pic i could snap real fast
