Superworms are weird

I recently bought a tub a superworms, transferred them to a bigger container and have them new oatmeal for digging and eating and such. The next morning I opened the container to find all the worms above the oatmeal and not digging in it.

Can anyone tell me if I did something wrong because they’re all just on top.

I am currently taking care of a self-sorting mealworm farm (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQBrAzr0cmk), and, although it seems like they're all on top, most are under the surface. For feeding, the oat mixture is fine for food, but they need something for water. Old carrots/potatoes are good. I use lettuce leafs.
