I had 6 ghost shrimps. Now I have 2. I have found 3 dead bodies so far, with no sign of injury. Do you know why they would have died? I wonder if my water just isn't suited to them, or if maybe the ick/fungus meds I used recently killed them. THere was no warning on the boxes that it would. My stats are: ammo 0, nirtite 0, nitrate 0, pH 6.8, temp 78. I really like them, but I don't want to buy more just to kill them.
Thanks!
 
What meds did you use? Most meds will kill snails/shrimps, so it was likely to be that. The only way my shrimps have died is through being eaten... blinkin' loaches!!
