nicpapa Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Hi there i keep crs in two 30 liters tanks. Setup in both tank is the same. Water parameters are the same , all is the same. My water parameters are. Kh 0 Gh 5 Tds 130 Ph 6.4 Light is 30watt t8 for the 2 tanks. Filter eheim liberty 2040, with sponge filter on the inlet and sera filter media with pumice stone. No3 keep it at 5 -10. Minerals salty shrimp gh + ro water, substrate is akadama. The problem is only in one tank, i have deaths, every day i found 2-3 shrimp dead. There are a lot of babys in there, all of the sizes. I found dead not only olders but youngers. I think all it start, after remove one plant, blyxa japonica. So its a bacterial infection? I cant understand. I try big water changes. Clean filter. Add salty easy filter. Clean substrate, and add some new akadama on the top. I cant find what it cause it , its something that poison them. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lyana Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Sounds like something was released when you moved the plant. Have you checked for ammonia or nitrites? svetilda 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarah Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Have you been doing all this with your bare hands in the tank? Perhaps something on your skin? Lyana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
