2 days after born and i already find 2 dead kk shrimplet :(

but the cherry/crs shrimplet are fine

any hints for raising the weak shrimplet like KK ?!

[BlueBolts]

They need good tank stability and WP. Post up more details like TDS, GH, and anything you've done, like water changes, additives, feeding regime etc.... You must have a good eye to notice dead 2 day old shrimplets.

[Squiggle]

Oh no that's terrible nolan! You must be devistated :( Hope you find out what's wrong

Bad luck mate, it happens with TB's, it will get easier with these guys, just gotta work out why? I find Michling x TB babies are stronger.

[KiwiBigD]

That sucks, all you can do is try and improve the water quality and wait for the next batch. Good luck

[izzy]

Sorry to hear about your loses Nolan.

[MrShrimp]

The first 3 weeks of a tb shrimplet is the hardest. If they can survive past the first 3 weeks then they have a 90% survival rate to make it to adultbhood. Most breeders will experience this and those who continue will learn from there mistake and have good success.

[al4n]

fussy little buggers by the sounds of things, hope you work out what it is mate!

[nolanlll]

Thanks guys

the KK shrimplet is easier to spot because it have blue body ,usually CRS shrimplet is clear body in first week

and i know it's weak because it's KK x KK ,not KK x misling .so may be just natural too weak from the pure blood line

My WP are follow

Rain water plus shrimp mineral ,benibachi soil

chiller Temp :24

PH 6.8

GH 1

KH 1

TDS 150

No3 0-5 (test paper)

No2 0-5(test paper)

Ammonia N/A

EC :N/A

no water change , just top up

i have put a air stone in the tank ,but do you think the oxygenator is needed ?

[BlueBolts]

..but do you think the oxygenator is needed ?

For TB's, why not. Food is critical for shrimplets. If you think your KK's are week, then by continually introducing new lines, would strengthen them up well.... no reason if this is done that your KK x KK should have a low shrimplet survival rate. Can you post a pic of your entire tank...easier to comment if the setup is seen too.
