I'm coming up dry. Maybe a photo?

Having different parts of a digi more extended isn't that unusual could be reactions to flow, light or food but the shedding? No idea. Digis don't shed. Is it losing skin or maybe just mucus?
Good point about the mucus. May retracted polyps, baring more skeleton? Im still with you on the shrimp
