Hi Matt,
Let me know if you need more.
So far the shrimps look ok *touch wood* . But the problem is that I cannot tell if the numbers are reducing. Too many places to hide.
I have been trying to up the kh and maintain gh levels. Kh now about 4 and gh about 7. Broke my last test capsule when doing the last test.
Anyway, seen some moulting, but don't know if belongs to the cardinals or cherry.
Also doing some read up .

Seems like gh is not a accurate indication. These invertebrates need other minerals as well (calcium, magnesium, etc) so hopefully the salts are providing sufficient minerals to them.
So far I have used 7 scoops of Malawi and 5 scoops of the salts on a 100 liter tank. Will keep monitoring. Hopefully it works.
