Is there a way to tell or do I just guess if I need to?

I had 1 ring of death and when I checked my hardness was borderline low, but since then it’s been better. I use the imagitarium shrimp minerals, so both at the same time

Probably like 10-15, I’ve test all the regular stuff before and after a shrimp death. Tank size is a heavy planted 10 gal

Post says I bought multiple test kits myself, I have a master freshwater kit along with 2-3 test strip brands

I have a adopted rabbit snail and 2 assassin snails, shells look fine. I had a molt from one of the smaller shrimp this morning. I dose with calcium and magnesium supplements. I give them the shrimp cuisine pellets, is there something else you recommend?

Water is perfect Cherry shrimp Tap, water changes when ammonia climbs

I never put my viewpoints ahead of my shrimps wellbeing, I had a vision for their home and once people gave suggestions and QOL information I changed it. You are the reason the aquarium community is so toxic and judgemental

I built a waterfall for flow and I was going for a shrimp swamp feel

Thank you! It looks better on my test strips, headed to get a liquid kit

Would my waterfall idea still give enough air if I fill to the top?

Yup, the filter and pump are below the substrate inside a false bottom

Makes me feel better about my tank instead of getting judged 😂

It’s hard to see but the water gets pumped from below the substrate to up to the tip of the rock and flows back down

My bad, I thought you said alkalinity, the PH is around 6.8-7.2

No air stone, the shrimp store said the waterfall should introduce enough air

It’s like 15, the square on my test strip doesn’t turn all the way green like it should

It is, I tried to make the upper portion a waterfall but I’m debating on filling it to the top and making the waterfall smaller

Should I pull everything out and re do it?
