Changed my water again yesterday, no one died this time but they are all clinging on the surface!!
 
I've increase surface agitation but what do i do? surely the new water is more oxygenated than the week old one?
 
Water was also cloudy, just done a 50% water change and shrimp are now back on the bottom
 
Sounds like slowly going back to normal, may have been a small bacterial bloom or something like that.
 
Do a water test to check all is as it should be.
 
Keep doing water changes if shrimp shows any further changes as you have been doing so far.
 
Keep us posted.
 
sounds like it, shrimp are sensitive to low oxygen and bad water quality
 
I dont have a test kit atm its at a friends for a new set up,
 
Did you temperature match the water?
 
My amano shrimp get all worked up when anything at all changes, but they settle within about 15 minutes of being left alone.
