    Hello,

    I give 3 times for days brine shrimp to my Paros and for the youngs.
    I change water every weeks with 0 µs water.
    This morning my conductivity is very high (120µs)!

    Hi Davy,
    I would look to other things in your tank to explain the rise (rocks?).
    But to be sure, when I feed brine shrimp napauli I always net them and rinse in old tank water before placing in Paro tank. I never use a pippette.

    No rock in my tanks. I use sieve to put directly brine shrimp in the Paros tanks.

    My conductivity was never so high…

    After a big water change: 25 us = eggs in the nest of male tweediei :woohoo:

    Helo, Brine shrimp napauli are raised in a salt water..so, The conductivity of Your water incraeased by the solved salt… I wrote some of my expierience with this subject in some old topic… Conductivity of water in my young paros tank increased from 50 us up to ~500 us ! – but water hardnes still stay in the same level.. my young paros were doing well and there was no problems with them. Regullary water changes will solve problem of salt concetration..:)

    Greetings!
