    csm+b kills all shrimps and snails

    Maybe a bad batch, high in copper. Or batch to old. I don't over dose. Just created a new batch and added fungus prevention by adding excel, even if I did not see any sign of deterioration in my 3 month old bottle.

    plants dying

    Your right, Its java fern. Grandulosa is a other plant i have. I don't care about grandulosa. My java fern is close from the surface, or mid range. The dwarf hairgrass is lower, the one that's doing well are in the shade. So that's why I concluded to much light.
