H.Mag question

[rags111875]

My H.Mag, which has only been in my DT for 3 days (was in QT with Cipro for a week after i got it from the LFS) balled up tonight. He is back to normal now, pix included (Davinci extreme lurking, hasnt made a visit yet).
I noticed at the time that he balled up, there was a peppermint shrimp kinda picking at/near his foot. Should i be concerned with the shrimp?

He look healthy, but bleached. If the shrimp is a Peppermint, not Camel shrimp I would not worry about it. You do know the differences between these two species of shrimp, right?
He looks good. Feed him well at this time until he recover his zooxanthelae.

Thanks. Yea, definitely a peppermint.
He hasn't taken any food yet.
Curious what color he may show eventually. Was bleached like this when I picked him up. Will try to get some food into him tonight.
Thx again.

Small bits of food, no larger than pencil eraser size.

You got it!
I've followed your advice from previous posts and the stickies and it has served me well to this point. I thank you once again.
