Doesn't matter I'd say, Whenever the new photoperiod normally starts, maybe, this way they have some time to settle more....
Its ok to try a feed... |

I don't think it matters too much. When I added my Tomato Clownfish they ate within the first 5 minutes. If you think your fish are stressed then not trying to feed them for a day or two won't kill them. Regarding the lights, just keep it on a normal day/night cycle.

I always give my new fish at least 2 hours of non lights in the tank.
For eating, they normally start to eat the next day but if you have other fish in the tank, feed them normally |
