Hi I was wondering if anybody can help me I am on my 4/5th batch of RCS.
They were in my 16 litre tank Wich has an external filter of 8 litres capacity so about 24 litres total capacity.
My water perameters are as follows
Ph 6.95
Gh. 5°
Kh. 4°
Ammonia. 0
Nitrite. 5 ppm
Nitrate. 10 ppm
I use salty shrimp GH kh +.
And I use backter ae and mineral junkie.
I feed with birch leaves Nettle and bramble,as well as snowflake food.
In all my years of being around aquatics I have never ever known a specie's as IMPOSSIBLE to keep alive.Can someone out there please help I have literally battered my head trying to work out why these easy to keep creatures keep on dying.
I can't even begin to imagine where I am going wrong.Can anybody recommend a good basic book for reference of the type interpet used to do on guppies goldfishes ect.
You get a little tired of veiwing all the stuff that is on-line and basically takes you round in circles.
Regards Martin Steele
