The Story So Far..........

Shrimpy said:
Thanks for the replies.

Yes i am using normal gravel but i added fulvic grain to buffer the water and keep my ph down. Anyway, i found the problem! Dincho you were right, somehow my kh has crept up to 6!! My test kit is a little old so i bought a new api master test kit yesterday. The fulvic grain only has a 6 month lifespan so i guess thats what it was, i added some more yesterday so i will check again later.

Thanks again for all the advice


Lucky guess ;)
 
Just to confirm. I added another packet of fulvic grain yesterday, i just tested my water and everything back to normal, ph 6.4, gh 5, kh 0, fingers crossed they start breeding again now.
 
Added some more breeding liquid last night, 2 pregnant shrimp today :) Panic over, thank you again for the assistance.
