I bought some shrimp{cherry,emerald,algae}is what they were labeled.I had 2 molt and after they molted they died?Is there something i should be adding to the water?
Thanks nate
 
they need calcium to rebuild their shells...i have heard of using cuttlebones..but maybe member here have a better way since i personally have never needed to add calcium to my already hard water
 
Shrimps are very sensitive to waterconditions. A to high amount of nitrite or nitrate is very deadly. Also most fishmedication is deadly to shrimps, because of the copper.
