    Saron Shrimp molted

    I guess I should get rid of this guy as I read they are not reef safe. I havent noticed him messing with anything so far other than him sort of whipping the yellow polyps with his antenna. Doesnt seem to really bother them they just close a little until he leaves....Anyway he molted today. As I'm sure you guys know I know little about the quality of my water but this is a good sign right?

    It is neither a good nor a bad sign. It simply means that it is alive. All crustaceans molt. It's what they do for a living.
