I’m in agreement with Simon and Jayc here. Definitely best to go with parameters that are easier to maintain. Success with shrimp is most often found through consistency. If it’s easy enough, I’d encourage you to take out the smallest piece of tiger stone and test if it raises pH. Get 2 plastic containers, fill both with the same amount of water, and put the tiger stone in one of them. Then measure pH in both (just to be sure), and wait a week or two before measuring again. On another note, that tank looks great!

Ok, thanks. I will do this. I haven't heard about this before until I've seen it in the store. This is what I purchased. Supposedly the bag label says they are from China. The store page doesn't show you exactly what the rock looks like though. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/imagitarium-turtle-terrain-tiger-stripe-rocks They look like this. https://www.myaquariumclub.com/i-bought-some-tiger-rock-from-dollar-tree-and-wanted-to-know-if-they-where-...-725499.html How they look like in my tank, before I let it grow and age. https://imgur.com/hbzmmRo
