RE: [GSAS-Member] Sulfur Smell?
I really don't know if it is, but the fish seem to be doing fine. Wonder if
there is a test kit for that sort of thing.

Are you sure it isn't the tank? Maybe hydrogen sulfide from an anaerobic
process in the substrate?

Do you have any idea how tolerant of nitrates these guys are? I keep
singapore shrimp in my planted tank, but my nitrates are somewhere
between 20-80 ppm... hard to read the color on this darn kit.
Oops, nevermind, found a site that claims 25 ppm max for cherry shrimp.
Darn. I better get a better test kit.
