EMERGENCY! RED CHERRY SHRIMP WONT STOP SWIMMING!
I just bought 10 red cherry shrimp to put in my matured 20 gallon planted tank. The first 5 hours they were doing fine, then I left and came back 3 hours later and they are all swimming around the tank non stop. All 10 of them. Whats wrong??
Would co2 be a factor? I have a diy co2 system that gives minute amount of co2. like a bubble every 8 seconds.

Yeah your right. They were just excited about the new tank. They are all just chillin. What I did not think about when setting up te tank was the color of the substrate so I got red. Now it's impossible to find them....
