The Opae ula shrimp Forum and online store

Hi, not too sure what i am doing wrong but my shrimps seem to be dying off one by one... I measured the Nitrate, Nitrite and Ammonia levels. They actually look okay to me. I am dousing BioDigest about once every 2 weeks and feeding them siprulina. Hope you can advise me. Thank you very much.

You’re water parameters are spot on and fine, must be contamination in the water. I would change out as much as possible with clean brackish water. Then give it a few days and change it out again to be sure.

I’d also stop feeding for the time being.

Good luck.

Like Odin said. Real coral? The main one (btw, looks nice). Did you wash well? Temperature you keep? Closed top?

Thanks odin, i'll try doing it before more unnatural deaths occur

Yep its real coral skeleton, well i boiled it for awhile and soaked it for afew days in distilled water. Mmm temp of the water is about 20 degree Celsius and the top is covered.

Deaths after moss balls? Or was it there when the tank was set up?

Any updates? I hope the shrimp are ok now.

Shrimps are thriving!!! Thank you for the advice

That is great news! Thank you for the update.
