redcross Shrimps dying after molting

Hi... noticed my shrimps dying after molting. Any additive to help in molting process? My water conditions are PH 6.2, nitrate below 40ppm and temp 26 degrees. Have not tried using any GH test kit. Do u guys think its GH? Shrimps all healthy and feeding except when molting starts. They just die. If Gh is the problem, any additive that can help? Thanks.
