Inadequate calcium in water and foods lead to these things,u can help by feeding a little more calcium rich foods such as shrimp or krill

[QUOTE =“Deadliestviper7，post：7898480，member：151130”]水和食物中的鈣含量不足導致這些事情，你可以通過餵食多一些富含鈣的食物，如蝦或磷蝦[/ QUOTE]

Hi James, next time maybe try feeding specialzed crayfish food which has more calcium in it...

I throw seashells in my water to boost calcium. It's cheap (free), and really helps my snails.

That's very low. Maybe add more shells until you get 7.5?
7.0 is neutral. Less than that is acidic.
