Water conditions and shrimp

[sterling18]

Just curious, will a cleaner shrimp or a peppermint shrimp survive low salt gradient conditions?

Something like 1.009 sg?

No, that's an invert death sentence.

That is just wayyy too low. 1.024-1.027 is an ideal range. Shrimps are hella sensitive to salinity swings.

gotcha. I'm putting some fish into QT & Hypo and was just wondering what is done for shrimp if anything.

No QT needed for shrimp or crabs.
