Purchased an emerald crab two days ago placed it in the tank and it died within 6 hours of being in the tank. Not sure if I got a dud crab or its my water. Like I said this is my first time with saltwater so this could 100% be user error on my end but here were my water test results
NO3 >20ppm
NO2 0
PH around 8.0
KH around 80
GH 180
Salinity 1.026
Temp 76
The tank has live rock in it and I've had it for close to two almost three weeks. Last week my water test results were all over the place but were normal before placing the crab in. Could it be my salinity is too high? I know its on the higher side and I am in the process of lowering it.
