I got a new tiger pistol shrimp today to replace the one I lost recently (my goby has been all out of sorts).
I got the shrimp in the mail from vivid aquarium. It arrived this morning (about 14 hours in the bag). While I was acclimating, the shrimp molted. I know that inverts sometimes molt due to stress, but I also know that they are also weak and vulnerable after molting.
My goby went right to him after I put him in and is watching out over him, but the shrimp isn't doing much. It's alive because I can see it moving. Is this to be expected? Is it not digging because it is weak?
