Default Cleaner Shimp Dead

One of my cleaner shrimp died the other day. I couldn't figure out why.

I think I may know now. What temp can a shrimp handle?

I've been getting different readings from my thermometers. My regular one, was reading the tank to be between 71 - 73 F, but my chiller was saying it was 78.

I though maybe the chiller was wrong, nope the chiller is right. I just took my coralife thermometer out of my QT tank and into my main tank. The temp was 79 F. I guess maybe I should trust the $400 piece of equipment over the $25 one.

Is it possible my shrimp died from this change, of course the other one is doing ok?
