I received in the mail 7 Amano shrimp for my established 30 gallon planted tall tank. Water parameters tested well. O ammonia, o nitrites, about 15 nitrates. Ph was about 7. The next morning I found 5 of the shrimp crawling on the ground. I guess they climbed up filter pipe?? I put them back in tank they seem fine. Will they keep doing this? Thanks
 
yes and you really need to cover the entire top of the tank. From my experience anything will try to escape a tank and i have no idea why.
