Another Shrimp Mishap

Luck must be bad these days. Got a few bunches of water sprites yesterday and planted them in both cube tanks. Unfortunately, I think there must be some residue of some pesticide or fertilizer on the water sprites present without my knowledge.

I planted the water sprites at about 5.30pm and when I checked the tanks at about 8.45pm, quite a number of the RCS looked to be motionless with a bunch more struggling for life ... immediately whipped out a series of water changes in both tanks until they finally stabilize.

I woke up this morning to find that all but one of the CRS are dead with quite a few casualties on the RCS as well in both tanks. Thankfully, some still survived the ordeal and hopefully they will multiply in the future ... only time will tell.
