Dirty Cleaner Shrimp

[Whiterabbitrage]

For the last few days my Cleaner Shrimp has been letting algae grow on his feelers. He used to clean them but now he doesn't bother. Is he getting old or is something else going on?

As messy as he looks no wonder no one visits his cleaning station.

Took a bunch of pictures yesterday. Shrimp kept moving so it was tough to get a picture with my cheap camera. Today I checked the tank, and presto, the shrimp is squeaky clean again. Maybe he molted and hid the evidence? Maybe the pictures shamed him into action? Maybe the Zoloft helped? Who knows!

He was just trying on a new hair style! :spin2:
