ok took some water samples to the store and got them tested, all of my parameters are at safe levels. no idea why i am getting different results at home. Also i updated my lighting system to a 10,000k/65watt and actinic 65watt, cost me $430 :(. lets hope they start to live. damn crabs p.s...

I purchased a 5 pack from here over a month ago. So far 2 of them have turned completely white and have been eaten by my blue legs. Calcium and lighting conditons are good. Any ideas why?
