My tank has just cycled, it's a 46bowfront with 30lbs of live rock (...I know, I'm getting more later.)
Today I threw in 2 peppermint shrimp and 5 turbo snails. After about an hour I came back to the tank and a shrimp shell: head, tail, and antenna; was floating around on the sand. I saw one of the shrimp but I didn't feel like picking out all the rock to look for the other guy. Do I have a deadly hitchhiker somewhere or do stressed shrimp just instantly shed themselves??
Very very wierd.
