Is there enough algae in the tank? Are you providing algae tablets, if not?

i am feeding them sinking food, tht according to the lable on the bottle is for shrimps and lobusters

I agree with jparnell, try the algea pellets. And yea, thats all the advice I can give.

32 and 33 degrees.... Celsius? Try turning down the heat a bit that might help.
