hello everyone. thx for reading my thread. i have a problem, before i re-arrange my layout in my tank, all my CRS are happily living in the water, staying ard the base of the tank.
the problem comes after i edited the tank, i took the shrimps out and a lot of the water out to another container and edit the tank, after i am done with it i put everything back in, including the water. the problem now is that my shrimps seems to be always on the top of the tank refusing to go down. i got ard 40 CRS all at the top. been like this for 2 days.
anyone know what is the cause of it?
Does your shrimp swim around or they all just stay at the top and refuse to go down?
I think they dislike the new water parameter.
When you were editing the tank,you disturbed the sediment without realising it.
As water is added in, water parameter changed due to disturbed sediment mixing with your old water.
There could be a water parameter spike, do please check your water paramet and let us know your reading.
ASAP, as there is a chance that some CRS might died.
They just stay at the top, hugging the floating plants. So far have not lost any, I will go check the parameters when I get home from work.
