So I bought my first cleaner shrimp this afternoon, along with 5 new turbo snails and acclimated them all together. Floated them for about 20 minutes or so, and then dripped them for hour/hour and a half ish in a 5 gallon bucket. Turbos were all fine, but the shrimp was pretty much DOA. He seemed to be moving around in the bag, but didn't move around much in the bucket and then when I moved him to the tank he didn't flinch and just tumbled into a corner.
Cut to 4 hours later and 2 hermits are on top of him either giving him CPR or feasting on his flesh... Should I pull him out, or let the hermits enjoy their 20 dollar meal?? Also, anything about my acclimation seem off enough to cause the death?
