So, not too sure what's going on with my tank but today I picked out 4 dead RCS and yesterday I had picked out 2. All other shrimp in the tank seem happy and healthy, but among the dead ones today was a heavily pregnant female. This is a 5.5G Fluval Chi planted set up with live plants, the goofy mini CO2 system that comes with, and a fluval nan filter etc... I checked all my water parameters and everything looks good so not sure what the problem is. Temperature is 25C. Background on the tank. Set up with just plants 2.5 months ago, waited a week then cycled with neon tetras for a month. All fish have been removed and the only other inhabitant of the tank now is one zebra nerite snail. After the 6 dead shrimp I'd say there is about 20 cherries left. Any help here would be appreciated, in the past any Cherry Shrimp tanks I've had required little to no maintenance and the little guys flourished/bred like crazy. My only thought here is that I may be putting too much CO2 into the tank as this is my first experiment with CO2. It's just the little Fluval CO2 20 that I'm using and I only fill the chamber in the morning each day (none on weekends as this is a work tank).
