CBS less active

Post by skaandfish »

Just started my new 10 gallon, had it running for two weeks now i have some riccia fluitians in middle and foreground growing in a unraveled loofa. Java moss in corner growing not sure what to do with it. Under gravel filter and five Crystal Black, or Bee Shrimp. Shrimp are still young. Getting some decent pigment. One problem. First week they were active, ate everything constantly moved about the tank, now they all just chill under some java moss wrapped in loofa and dont even constantly eat =( i'm all worried. I feed them flakes and crushed wafers sometimes. Lights on 12 hrs a day. Flouresent tube

ph. -----7.0
NO+3---0
NO-2---1.0
Water is soft
KH------about 50
ammonia, stress but going away rapidly

Why aren't my shrimp more active?
