I would appreciate some advice on running a succesful shrimp tank.No matter how I try I seem to loose cherry and amano shrimp.
I have a small tank, about 30 litres which has two small filters working in it. I keep the temprature at about 78.I have only plastic plants, keep shrimp only and have an airstone on the go 24hours.
The ammonia is 0 the nitrite 0 and nitrate low to none existant. The PH is about 7
I do not overfeed and do regular water changes.The tank has been running about 9months with various fish - no problems there.But introducing shrimp only has been a disaster. I recently changed the water to RO with some salts
Any advice would be welcome.
Thank you,
Jon
