The pic makes the shrimp seem kinda cloudy, but if it's just the pic that makes it look like that, then feeding may have indeed been a problem.the shrimps were always see through - i watched them intently for ages! they ate well and loved the tank - then after 3 weeks they were both dead in two days!
Do you think it was starvation ? i havent got any more pics of the shrimps - though since adding the shrimp i added 8 guppies in 2 weeks. they are really really greedy... and the tank hasnt got any algae now.. so maybe they werent getting food???
These guys don't really eat algae, they have proper claws and are all round scavengers but are rubbish at eating algae.
If you weren't giving them any sinking pellets and were just relying on them eating waste fish food, they may have actually starved. But not within 2 days, and if you saw them eating then that wont have been it.
