Hey guys,
Did a water change yesterday and after completing it I noticed one of my cleaner shrimp came out of the LR and hung around the front of the tank. I thought it was a little weird at first, but it was just munching on some left over food, then after about 10 minutes it stopped moving and the water current just tipped it over and it stayed upside and died. My other cleaner shrimp stayed in the rocks and is still alive.
Anyone have any idea why it died?
Shrimp was 3 inches (possibly old?)
Tank parameters
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 0
SG before and after 1.024
The only reason Im a little annoyed.. is that the majority of you guys I speak to know that Australia sucks for pricing and I paid $150 for it!!
