Strictly as a matter of interest. The shrimp I got in the same shipment is acting totally normally. 8)

My Shrimp are doing fine as well. I don't know about the stupid snails I got though. They continue to migrate to the front glass...don't they know I clean that glass regularly ? I put them on a rock where I had hoped they would do their thing and they don't move. I mean they'll stay in one place for ten days if I leave them. I thought I was dumb... :?
Bob, any interest in that C.C. Starfish ? Another thing Bob. The Lemon Peel Angel I purchased shortly after you got yours is in with "the general population" but continues to be a very picky eater. It will not accept the wide variety of frozen foods I offer. I grazes regularly and will eat some pellets. What have you been feeding yours ?

The trouble with the CC is that the tank is still partially reef. There are a few soft corals, and the Anemone. If there is no expected problem with those, we could pitch him in there. :roll:

As to the Lemonpeel, he eats anything I offer with flake food being a real favorite. In frozen food, I offer Mysis, Formula 1, and 2. In addition he chomps on Caulerpa. I don't know if he has any success with that though. :D

Not to be argumentative, my understanding of molting is that it is a function of growth. The animal gets too big for its outer covering, it molts, period. Now I am not aware of unusual molting, so I am out of the picture here. As to iodide. I add reef iodide sporadically, and have never had unusual molting. That is all I can offer.
