DevinB Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 So I have a 10g tank I started with 10 rkk/ panda 10 bkk/panda and 10 bb taiwan bee adults and around 20 baby bkk and a single wr baby that's mostly white. I noticed a dead rkk about a week and a half ago and upon close inspection noticed one wall had a handful of hydra on it. Figured that was what killed the shrimp even though it was a full grown female. Dosed some fenbendazole over last weekend and havent seen a hydra since. Yet I have lost 5 more rkk adults this week, no babies have shown up dead and no bb or bkk... Do hydra have eyes..? Or a way to see the red shrimp better?Maybe my batch of rkk were just older? I did receive them and the bkk as mostly adult size shrimp.. All my water params. are good but I did add some new plants about a week prior to the first death..

barvinok Posted September 9, 2017 Report Share Posted September 9, 2017 Hydra does not have eyes or color preferences. Slim chance that RKK had hypersensitive to Hydra sting but more likely you are right about old age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
