I’ll keep up with the treatment and that’s very true

Just keep treating the ones with it, that is all you can do, and you should get there in the end! It often takes a few treatments but at least it isn't a difficult treatment to administer. Simon

So after a thorough search of all the shrimp I don’t think that I’ve been able to stop the vorticela reason I say this is I have found two that are showing new signs could only get this two shots the rest just didn’t show anything the red one had one tiny tiny little white hair between the nose so I’ve gotten them all together and given them a 1 minute salt bath I hope that was the right thing to do. I still have them in a cup floating in the tank and I’ll try taking some pictures of them all tomorrow. I’ll give them follow up baths unless advised otherwise

Glad you managed to get pictures attached now! That shrimp probably was a bacterial infection or something as that isn't a normal death! I had lots look like that though when my tank overheated because of a heater stuck on??? You could probably have left the filter running, that is normally where you get the most bacteria growing anyway. The worms are probably just detritus worms and nothing to worry about, I doubt there is any tank without them when using soil substrate. The treatment I am sending, and the panaria zero won't probably kill those worms. I have had large patches of them in the past, it may be a sign you are overfeeding? They were more likely in the substrate rather than the plants. When you top up for evaporation use pure rain (ro) water without gh/kh+, otherwise you will get a rise/build up in tds, evaporation is purely water and the tds are left in tht tank. Simon
