I have been struggling with the fact that no matter what I did my dwarf shrimp population was dwindling! I tried everything over the past 12 months, then yesterday, i think i finally discovered what was killing my shrimp! LOTION!!! About 12 months ago I started using a body lotion that contained copper, unbeknownst to me. i always was my hands with organic soap before putting them into the shrimp tanks, but only rinsed my arms with plain water. I was shocked when I noticed the ingredients on the lotion, but i.e. was an epiphany for me. Could I have been poisoning my shrimp all of this time? I hope that I have finally found the source of the problem, because I am determined that I will successfully raise dwarf shrimp! I refuse to give up!!!
