please help me figure out why my KH/ph keeps dropping

Posted: 13 Jun 2022 04:47 PM PDT

this is a continuation of sorts of this post. i will crosspost elsewhere but figured id post here because the inhabitants are shrimp

i have a 6.8g imagitarium tank that's been running for nearly a year now. it initially housed a betta but i upgraded her to a 10 gallon in october and it's housed shrimp ever since. the issues began in january.

every month-two months since january, the KH and ph in the tank crash and it kills all of my shrimp. the ph usually drops from 7.4 down to 6.8-7.0. this almost always kills all or most of the shrimp. the KH drops from 3-4 to 0. it also happens seemingly overnight. i can test the tank the day before and get a normal ph reading, and then the next day it's crashed.
initially the tank had fluval stratum which was likely influencing the crashes. i removed that in march and everything in the tank has been inert since, yet the crashes keep happening.
in may i also switched to distilled water that i remineralize using Dennerle Shrimp King GH/KH+. i used the remineralizer to keep the following parameters:
3-4 KH
7-8 GH
7.4 ph
i was doing water changes every other week (around 20%) as the tank never read nitrates anyway (it is heavily planted). in between that i topped the tank off with less than an inch of plain distilled water.
today it crashed again. the last water change was almost 5 days ago so it wasn't related to that.
this is a list of everything that is in the tank:
- inert black sand
- two small terracotta pots
- a glass feeding dish
- an adjustable heater set to 78
- a thermometer
- a sponge filter
- a plastic aquarium safe dinosaur skull
- 2 small lava rocks
- plants (anubias, java fern, marimos, rotala, ludwigia)
- 20 or so neocaridina

how can this continue happening if i'm manually keeping the parameters stable? would really appreciate some help figuring out why this continues to happen as i'm at my wits end here and no longer have any ideas. the shrimp have been moved to a breeder net in another tank for the time being (drip acclimated).

thank you and feel free to ask for any additional details

Do shrimps hide before they die? Or are the bodies usually easily seen?

is there any creature I can buy that would eat my pest snails but not my shrimps ?

Posted: 14 Jun 2022 01:53 AM PDT

Hi everyone, everything is kind of in the title

I've looked on google and couldn't find a specie that would eat pest snails but not my cherry shrimps

I've seen pea puffer and loaches eat snails but that they would also eat my shrimps

I've also seen that there is a snail variety that specifically eat other snails but I don't really see the benefit of removing snails to add another snail that I don't want

So here I am looking for maybe a fish that would eat pest snails but not my shrimps, does that exist ?

Thank you very much in advance for your answers !
