Shrimp molting

Recommended Posts

Hello. I recently bought a cleaner shrimp which has now molted for the second time. However this time it has done it on the day of the regular water change. I know they are particularly susceptible to changes in water parameters just after molting, so how long do you suggest i wait to do it. Thanks

I've personally never waited.

 

Your parameters should be the same when mixing salt water. 

You should test the water to ensure it's the same

Agree with @clown79. Don’t worry too much about the molting. As long as your parameters are in check the shrimp should be ok. Just make sure you’re testing and that the water your adding is also at close to the same temp of your tank water.
