Cherry Shrimps nearly all disappeared in one night.

[MaloK]

I looked everywhere, no dead and nearly 3/4 are not found.

I think I can see the back of one buried in the substrate. But not able to find anything else.

What is going on ? Have they all buried themselves in the substrate ?

 

[Uberhoust]

Mine do not bury themselves. Though they hide in the moss pretty good.

edited spelling error.

 

[MaloK]

My water is 100 GH, 40 KH, PH 7


I admit I have probably over fed them a little. They're probably sleeping somewhere.

Hopefully not sleeping with the fishes, he said, in a New Jersey accent.

have you checked your filter? even if it’s a HOB (hang on back) filter, shrimp will still crawl in there to breed and hide because the water flow isn’t strong and there’s a lot of trapped food that’s easy to pick.

Nobody there.

I think, I just need to relax and wait until next brunch time.

gotcha, was worth a shot checking. if you have a lot of hard scape in your tank, shrimp love hiding, so they could be scattered out. hopefully when you feed them later they’ll all come out in the open

This is how it looks at the moment.
