one armed COral banded Shrimp???
 
I just noticed my CBS has only one arm. One of the BIG arms is missing. The wife said he molted reciently. But I dont see any trace of the other arm. No shrimp predators in the tank either. Is it OK? Will he regrow??

Coral banded shrimp are notorious in dropping their claws when they are stressed out or trying to escape something. I had one drop both claws when I netted him.

It will grow back, don't worry about it.
