    Bubbles forming on live rock?

    The max bioload that a normal Remora skimmer handles is 75 gal, maybe if you have a lot of organims in your tank the nutrients could nourish these ugly algae blooms. Try cleaning the skimmer and test the water that your RO/DI unit delivers. Could be or cyano or Valonia sp. Gl

    shrimp mortality

    hi, thanks krish75, Kensn and Spongebob lover. It was not a molt, it had flesh inside of it, and the eyeballs were with the molt. I think it was old ´cause the size of it was huge. (2 inches). Spongebob lover: thanks for the welcome, so you are from Mexico, great!!!. Del oriente, digamos por...

    shrimp mortality

    Hi, Any ideas of the longevity of a shrimp, especially L. debelius, I had one that died this night :cry: it was about 5 cm in lenght about 2 inches. I already bought it large, about 1.5 inches it was in my tank for 3-4 moths. The fish did not harass it, nothing was bad with it, until I found it...

    Mystery Coral

    Mmm sounds to me like a Protopalythoa sp. But really without pics, it´s hard to tell.

    Agree, it´s a Sea apple. BTW it is dying. Take it out if you have not.

    Mushroom disintegrating! Ahh!

    Did you photo-acclimated it? I´m asking because throwing them in the tank after the acclimatation (the one of water) is not all. You said it turned white, so I agree it was photoshock.

    Q´s about L. debelius.

    Update: Well yes it was trying to molt and it did, he still´s hiding but he ate some flakes. Maybe the molting announcement is the change of colors, the shells looking fuzzy and the behavior is hiding and reluctant to do anything. Thanks again.

    Q´s about L. debelius.

    Thanks wrightme43, NaH2O and liveorphysics. Yes, I´ve read that you should leave the molt in, so the shrimp would get nutrients that will help him after the molting. Well, the one-legged, (etc) boy is just "hiding" beside a power head, and when he arrived its body looked like it was "peeling"...

    Q´s about L. debelius.

    The last weekend I bought a pair of blood cleaner shrimps (L debelius.) and I realized (quite late) that one has a broken leg, and is missing another leg and a claw, so I was wondering: When it molts will it recover its lost parts? And another question how can you know when a shrimp is ready to...
