Clado? Help!!!

[ambrosia04]

The tank is 2 months old, 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, 0-5 nitrates, 7.2 ph, 125 hardness, 25-25.8°C, 80 alkalinity.

The 13 neocaridinas have been 2 weeks in the tank.
I did a 1 minute 20% salt dip just in case it was clado or ellib.

I separated it in a 2 liter (tank water) with floaters and horntwort and a stone

I have never come across this yet. But removing the infected shrimp to a quarantine tank is the best thing you've done in this situation. From what I have read, daily salt dips are advised, but do watch the dosage amount and length of the dip! Also, keep an eye on the others in case there are other infected shrimp.

Also, just saw some shrimp keepers add some catappa leaves to help combat it Hopefully, your situation is just a one time thing and there are no other infected shrimp

From what I've been told it was a pretty early clado, so I've quarentined the shrimp and I'm salt dipping it in a 20% solution for 60 seconds, let's hope it bounces back

Have a read here as it might help.

One thing they suggest is that salt treatments need to be combined with Peroxide treatments.

I came by my Blue Dream Neos from hobby breeders. I have never seen Clado on any of them. They reproduce for me like rabbits. I started with 10 from a friend (taking them as a favor to her )and then another 6 from one of my fish club members at the clubs monthly auction. To date I have sold a few 100 and have that many at least in the two tanks where I have them breeding. It is too bad you are in Spain or I would send you some for the cost of shipping.

You can see them in my thread here https://www.fishforums.net/threads/invasion-of-the-the-blue-dream.499317/

Aww thanks a lot! I love shrimps and I bought from a website literally called "Exotic shrimp" and they specialize in shrimps so idk how they can be so careless
But I'll give a read to what you sent me and try to execute it! Thanks a lot again ^^
Edit: I gave it a read and it seems like salt dips are best when they are easy to catch in quarentine so I'll keep at it, let's pray for it (idk how to tell gender easily still haha)

After 2 days of salt dipping (5g per 250 ml) and changing water (20%) in the quarentine tank, it seems the clado is getting yellowish, that's a good sign right?

 

[ambrosia04]

Well, today I saw a molt and now my shrimp is officially clean! I put it it in another fresh quarentine bucket and tomorrow he'll go back into the aquarium!

 

[ambrosia04]

Well he relapsed (I'm 90% sure bc I think he's the only male blue I have) 2-3 days ago, his whole underside has it but I think it's early so I'm treating him again, I've been doing the 20% salt dips for 60 seconds again, the bad new is that I'm going on a 4 day trip next wednesday and I only have a 15 liter tub without filter to leave him in, I may introduce him again to the tank and do a hydrogen peroxide treatment to the whole tank when I get back (it's a 105L but with all the substrate rocks and plants I estimate there's around 90L water, I'm going to dose 1.5 mL of 3% H₂O₂ per 4.5 L so 27 mL for 80L). I may try leaving him in the 15L with some hornwort and floaters and a bit of sponge with an aerator in hopes he survives the 4 days alone
Any advice?
