Hello, I have been having a problem with my Malawa, and Amano shrimp dropping their eggs. After 1 year i still do not have any shrimp that stay berried for more than a day. Inevitably some of the eggs do hatch, so my population is technically increasing, just at an extremely slow rate. And I do know that the Amano eggs are not viable in freshwater, I am simply stating them to show that it is not purely a Malawa shrimp problem. Before I moved my shrimp from a community 29g tank to a shrimp only 10g I did not seem to have this problem (same temp, ph,etc)
Temp:76
Ph:8.2
Ammonia:0
Nitrite:0
Nitrate:5
I do not have an accurate way to measure my hardness nor alkalinity although I do know that my cities tap water is quite hard. I use novaqua plus as a water conditioner and rarely dose a bit of flourish liquid plant fertilizer as it is a lightly planted tank. Any thoughts?
