I never met a shrimp that I didn't like.

Well that didn't take very long at all, though I did do a two gallon change with RO water the last two days, because my water specs were really close yesterday and I'm impatient. :innocent:
Anyway, my tank now has a pH of 6.6 and KH is actually less than 1. I also mixed up and tested some 50-50 RO/tap water mix and found it's specs to be roughly the same (6.6pH and 1-2KH) so I'm going to switch to weekly 10% water changes with that mix (well, more like 12% because the tank is slightly less than 20 gallons and I'll be changing 2 gallons out) and see if everything stays stable over the next few weeks.
I didn't find another home for those glowfish yet, but there's only 4 of them left now and another one is already looking sickly. <_<
