Hello friends,
I have a 30 gallon tank setup (an establish tank for over a year, just converted to shrimp) for CRS up for about 3 months now with a dozen CRS SS shrimp. The water parameters are TDS 120/130, temp 78, ph 6.4/6.6, 90% RO/10% Tap. Nitrate/Nitrite and ammonia at zero.
The tank is about half planted and does have some java moss and other assortments of shrimp approved plants.
The problem is, the shrimp do not seem to be breeding at all. Is the tank to big for them? Or do I need more than a dozen? They appear to be adults now. I am feeding different shrimp pellets, sinking wafers, flake food as well.
Any thoughts would be helpful.
Jeff
