I believe there is a case like this mentioned before and sticked.
What plants did you introduce? Or perhaps your hands touch some toxin subtances before putting in tank?
It might be few causes imo.
Hi, suspected pesticide too and been running activated carbon since 2 weeks ago and changed 10% of water using distilled water every 3 days.
No additives, CO2 or plant fert added since the tank started except mosura mineral plus to increase the GH.

Lists of equipments are 1 XP3 cannister and i set of T5 lights.
Air pumps is off only when lights on
Just a simple setup

All plants look ok except the one with the dark green with white you have planted not sure if its toxic but its not a true aquatic plant leave it longer it will rot away eventually. I notice in the same last pic you have some nana planted into the soil please pull them out & tie them to a piece of dw or stone cause nana cannot be buried or they will also rot away.

You have a very nice setup, but your shrimps looked a bit pale.

Don't WC too much and too frequent for your shrimps. They can't take the stress.

You may observe them for a week or so without doing anything on them.
Hope your shrimps are getting well.

Hi, normally how often do you all do water change? With de-chlorinated tap water or distilled water?


Just went to buy mosura bioplus and shrimp tonix, anyone got any good or bad experience using this products?
Thks

WC once per week will do with aged water (dechlorinated).
