Losing Shrimp Left And Right

[SoCalMom]

Yesterday I found one of the ghost shrimp dead on the bottom of the tank. Another one is missing (most likely got eaten). I just found the third one stuck to the side of the tank above the water line. I put it back in the water and it floated down. It looks to be alive but only time can tell. I have no idea how long the poor thing was stuck there and how the heck it managed to do it lol

I too, have lost my shrimp. Sigh.
I have tried and tried again, without success, to keep Ghost shrimp alive for more than 3 weeks. Can't do it. I'm doing something wrong, I just don't know what it is.

I know what happened to my ghost shrimp when they molted....mr betta got a nice meal. I won't try it again with another betta. If the shrimp was trying to escape it could be because of the water quality, or didn't want to become dinner!!
