Reefing newb
Something is killing my shrimp L . Hello my name is Casey I just got a 55 gal reef tank from some friend that moved out of town. I use the word reef tank lightly it has 35-40 lbs of live rock and some fish. Plus some almost dead coral. It took almost 2 mouths to get the tank in the good range. The coral came back and the salinity is normal. Sooo I started getting some snails and crabs. All is good then I get a cleaner shrimp. He’s in the tank for 5 hours and drops dead. Hmm I think maybe it was the shrimp just incase I check the water and did a water change. Some more time goes by and the water and the tank and coral are all happy …I think. So I go get a banded coral shrimp. In the tank he goes, looks like he’s having fun. I get up today and he’s deadL . I check the water all is good and the fish ,snails, crabs and coral all seem fine. I am new to this so don’t hate me for killing some shrimp. Any help would be grate I don’t want to kill shrimp.
