My problem is that sometimes database stops replying. All I can see is that I have registers in that table

When I get to this situation, I suppose that means that some transaction have not finish well. So, what can I do to recovery my replication?
Check the PostgreSQL server error log to find out what's going on and go from there. You need to find out what's going on, why replication apply has stopped progressing. Assuming it has.
BTW, you should use the "peek" functions not the "get" functions on an existing slot used by something else. Otherwise you might consume changes, causing them not to get replayed and resulting in inconsistencies.
