JPF Posted May 18, 2002 Share Posted May 18, 2002 My skunk shrimp gets those and then loses them when he molts. He seems unaffected by the spots. I have no idea what they are. Link to comment
stevejr Posted May 18, 2002 Share Posted May 18, 2002 Someone once told me that it is a parasitic organism growing on the carapice of the shrimp he told me it doesn't harm the shrimp since they shed so often it can't get a stranglehold on the shrimp. One of my cleaners had this and soon died though so I don't know how true this is. Link to comment
