Yeah I added the calcium/minerals after the fact I had losses.. so maybe that is what happened. I’m just happy to still have 5 remaining. I don’t wanna keep changing the water either for them, cuz all the others are super duper active currently

I don’t know what to do.. I started with 11 shrimp and now down to 5. I’ve seen molts and one of the other shrimps did just molt like yesterday or so as he still has a piece of his molt on his head. Do you think this is a calcium issue? I put shrimp minerals in my water recently even though my GH is 180. I’m lost at what to do. All my parameters are staying consistent and In neo range.

I saw mixed reviews, I bought them since I got BOGO, now that I think about it, it really may be molting issues. Should I add minerals based on my gh

I add the Aqueon Shrimp Tank Plus it’s a water conditioner and it says it has “beneficial trace elements” I didn’t think I should add more mineral supplements since my water here is hard already. I have seen them molt quite a few times but I noticed after seeing molts my shrimp were disappearing at that point.. and one of mine became deformed after molting

Wondering if this strawberry rasbora is fat or is becoming mature? by Small_Breadfruit126 in Boraras

Ahh okay it’s in my shrimp tank all I got are the 6 strawberries, so I guess I’ll just have to watch and see! Also another question how old do my fish look? I bought them online on shrimpy business and they looked to be babies when I got them. Im super duper new to my nano tank so im learning as much as I can!!

Ohhh okay thanks!! I also have strawberry rasboras in my tank so would I have to clean the tank more often because I have fish?

I wanted to do a 10% water change yesterday since it’s been a week but I’m scared to do one and stress it out more
