Good luck catching them!

Ghost shrimp are pretty dumb. Mine are constantly swimming into the
net when I'm scooping out plant debris.

But like I said, I only lost the one filtering shrimp.

Ah yes, misread your original message.

My theory is that its normal food supply including microscopic
critters that died because of the treatment (paremecia, etc.).

Sounds likely. I've got a very thick mat of algae on the back of the
tank, so my shrimp spend most of their time grazing on it, probably
eating tiny stuff just as you suggest.
