redcross Help!! White stuff found on shell of shrimps!

Hihi!

Recently I found that sone of the shrimps (FRs n low grade CRS) have some white fungus looking stuff on the shell. For the past few days.. Shrimps have been dying one by one ! Haiz.

Anyone can tell me the possible and most impt the cure??

Set up as following:

A tree-like wood with spiky moss.
Soil mix with grey gravels as base.

Have been cycling the tank for a mth before intro shrimps.. At first Nv see such prob.. Its like suddenly found those white stuffs... Help~~
