Hey guys, so I have this 10 gallon shrimp tank.

It has 6-10 yellow shrimp(a few berried females)
10 tiger shrimp
5 RCS(my angels ate my other 100?:( (in a breeding trap, I know they will cross breed, I am setting up a 20G for them now)
8 blue pearl shrimp(also have a breeding trap)
16 angelfish babies(moved to the 20G tomorrow)
1 red betta(peaceful)


but:(

I found my giant amano female(berried) 3" laying dead with 2 other tiger shrimp:(
The water parms are perfect. I just tested 1 week back, no recent additions, except for blue pearl shrimp added 5 min ago, but I found them dead 3 hours ago:(

the amano looked like it had just molted as it was pinkish, but the other tigers were also pinkish, what is happening:(

the other tigers left, yellows, and other shrimp are great:)

so what happened?

I have been feeding them fluval shrimp food, and algae wafers weekly.

please help, really worried:(

:help:

doing a 50% WC and I will test parms later.
