    Default Moulting

    My red cherry shrimp molted last Sunday night into Monday, I just checked the tank and there is another exoskeleton from one of the only 2 i have. They both moulted last week over night the same time. I was wondering if this is normal or should i be concerned? They are in a small intank sanctuary until i prepare theh tank 100% for them.

    nothing to worry about
    As I get older I find myself thinking about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

    They will molt a fair bit, over the months. Just leave the molted exoskeleton in the tank, they will feed off of it.
