I've had this cleaner shrimp for around 6 months now. He always just looked like a normal one. But the last time he molted (couple days ago) he started hiding a lot more and he developed these black markings. Anyone know what's going on? I've never seen this happen before
 
It looks like the start of Black Gill Disease.
