I'm so sad. I woke up this morning and found my three Amano shrimp dead. They were so robust the morning before. No indication of illness. The 10-gallon tank's parameters seem ok. No ammonia.
The one thing I did yesterday is clean the algae from the walls of my planted tank, changed some water (used Prime) and placed Seachem fertilizer (potassium, micros, iron, phosphorus) in the tank. I heard Amanos might be sensitive to fertilizing, so I made sure not to exceed recommended dosage.
Might any of these have killed my little guys? And if I get more Amanos, how would I keep them alive if I fertilize my planted tank?
