I have seen many shrimp/crabs molt, however, I have not seen a pistol shrimp molt. I purchased a tiger pistol yesterday. He went to hide in a cave area when it was introduced. This morning I saw some excavation action, and in a depression, I saw the following pic. It looks like a molt, but on the large claw there seem to be tendons or something and is throwing me off. It is hollow, so that should be a molt. I think it's odd that it would molt the night after introducing it to the tank.
Tank mates are two hermits some snails, two clowns and his buddy a yellow watchman.
The white on the bottom left is glue, so ignore that.
