My Peacock Manttis is acting very oddly. He's basically just sitting still outside his burrow, not on his side, but on his legs like normal. He's slightly curled up and he's been moving around a bit, except he can't seem to use his tail very well and is almost twitching at times. Paramaters are all 0ppm except nitrate <10ppm.

Mantis Acting Strange...

He had molted just a month ago. He passed. Not sure if it was an issue from his last molt that caused the strange movements or the fact that the salinity had swung a bit over the past couple days, as my DIY overflow had issues necessitating the sump be disconnected for 2 days. Went up about from 1.025 to 1.027 in 2 days then was brought down to 1.0255 over the course of 45 mins. Pretty annoyed with myself... R.I.P. Mjölnir the Mantis Shrimp.
Lesson learned....get an ATO and drill the tank....probably going to tear it down and do that this weekend.
