is it normal for a fire shrimp to partially molt ?
Reason I ask is I saw a tail molt from our fire shrimp around 2 weeks ago and thought hey cool he molted again , this would his second molt since we have him in a little under 4 months . Fast forward to 2 days ago we noticed he was missing lately and started investigating. We found what we thought were the remains of him , with that being the claw and arm sections only vsable , so we chalked it up to our flame hawk maybe got hungry and munched him and said our good byes lol.
Well today he magically reappeared happy as ever . so it seems he only half molted and then finished up later ? i don't think its possible that the remains didn't get worked over for by the cleanup crew in that time .
weird , but happy hes still with us . what do you think happened ?
