I have been noticing that whenever my cleaner shrimp or peppermint shrimp molt I get about a .10 drop in PH. After I remove the molting the PH goes back up again. I have searched around online to see if this was normal but could not find anything. This has been going on for the last year or more since I got the shrimps for the tank. Just thought I'd toss this out there to see if anyone else has experienced this or knows the reasoning behind the drop.
Thanks
