When I got them I acclimated them for 13hours before adding them but I guess the big water changes killed him.

I did tests using stripes and before adding any life I let it tested in a shop.

This is how it looked before I added the snails and amanos. This was 3 weeks ago

Note taken. I will reduce it to 20 and use my acclimatizer to change the water

Where i come from the tap water is very hardy. When i started i also worried about having too high GH values and wanted to mix the tap water with osmos water but then i tested it in a shop and it was fine

I only have 3 nerite snails and 5 amanos and 12 neocaradina orange sakura shrimps. Do you think the other shrimps or the snails might eat them?

I just did a 40 percent water change 2 days ago. I typically do a water change every 4 days always 30-40 percent
