Hi there,
2 weeks ago I received 3 Snows (Grade-C) of different size (smallest about 0.6 cm, largest about 1.3 cm).
They were placed into a 2 weeks before setup Tank (45L, HMF, put some filtermaterial of a running tank in for bacteria transfer) with some Tigertooth, Hinomarus, V-Band.
Water is: pH 6.6-6.8, KH 2-5, GH 6-9, NH4 0,Temp 23 C
Waterchange: Any 2nd or 3rd day, with temperated tap water and Tetra AquaSafe
Food: Shirakura (normal and for shrimplets), Biomax (normal and for shrimplets), Hobby Cyclop-eeze, JBL Novoprawn, Tropical Shrimp Sticks.
After 3 days the smallest Snow died, today the medium Snow died.
There were no indications for a problem, no change of colour etc.
The only thing I can identify is the colour of the dead shrimp, which turned a bit more to light pink, but I'm sure, yesterday it showed it's normal colour.
Is this colourchange normal, or does it show a bacterial infection?
Any Idea, what is wrong with my snows?
Best Regards
Thorsten
