It happen frequently
Lack of calcium ? You sure they molted properly ?

What shrimp you keep? Some shrimp are more sensitive than others thus need more care in water parameter management

They molted and appear weak after the molt, shortly after they do not seem to move around anymore and die.Originally Posted by KilliNewbie
maybe diet issues? or perhaps too hard for them to moult and after moulting not much energy left to hide

think some advice from members would be to continuously doze the bacteria for shrimp
or fulvic grains from benibachi or lowkeys. after every water change.
hope you can see better improvement.

Have you measured the gh or tds?
i have got the borneowild humic hopefully it solves the problem
The same thing happened to my fire red shrimp. It molted then became weak and stop moving much and died after few days. No idea why thou. Any idea?
only today, same thing happen to my rcs shrimps.. white band across the back/neck died, some of them turn black/blue
used api test kit all okay, nitrate at 10ppm
WC, still same outcome.. clueless, kh and gh also ok.. hmm
Shrimp serial killer on the loose?
For white band, most likely is insufficient calcium. Try to aim for gH of at least 4.
As for shrimps turning black/blue, that's something a bit strange.
For nitrate, if possible aim for zero by using more floating plants and/or overfiltration. But doubt nitrate at 10ppm will kill your shrimps immediately unless something's wrong with your test kit. And also check the ammonia and nitrite levels at the same time as well.
Do you use supplements?? . Mosura Gravidas works wonders.
