The shrimp lying on its side is usually sick. If it shows no vitality, it needs to be treated in time, otherwise it will die soon. There are many kinds of this animal, as a tool shrimp black shell shrimp is better to raise, and some ornamental shrimp on water quality, water temperature, dissolved oxygen requirements are relatively high, once the environment is not good, it may affect their health, or even lead to their death.
1. Water quality: Poor water quality is the main cause of shrimp death. Because of the different types, they have different requirements for water quality, some like weak acidic water, while others require alkaline water. At the same time, hard water is used in the process of growth, but soft water is needed for reproduction.
2. Water temperature: Temperature change is also a threat to the survival of shrimps. Usually, the water temperature should be kept between 22-24 ℃. A heating rod can be used to keep the temperature constant. During the breeding period, it needs to be raised by 1-2 degrees Celsius, but not too high, once it reaches 28 degrees Celsius, the shrimp will not be able to spawn.
3. Dissolved oxygen: Insufficient dissolved oxygen can also cause the death of shrimps. Many ornamental shrimps prefer high oxygen environment, low oxygen content, their survival will be seriously affected, or even a large number of deaths. You can prepare an oxygenation device and add oxygen to the water every day.
