Hello all!!
I am curious, has anyone ever had shrimp die because of a plant weight??
I know some I've gotten from a LFS are not magnetic and I am wondering if they have lead in them.
I have lost the occasional shrimp or few when I had a piece of cholla wood weighted down by these plant weights. Also had other plants weighted down by the same weights...
And I did lose a couple quite inexplicably...
The only thing I can come up with is the weights.
And since I removed them from the small 3.5 gallon shrimp only tank, the shrimp there Have THRIVED!!
with zero losses!! *knock on wood*
So just curious, has anyone ever had any issues with any plant weights and shrimp??
I believe I am going to stop using them.. just because I am so uncertain..
Any input is appreciated!! thank you!!
