didnt think it would have molted so fast and give me a heart attack. but all is well
 
Every time I see my lobsters molt it makes me go searching the tank to make sure it's alive. It took me a while to get used to it.
 
I had my first scare with a halloween hermit. About a month into my saltwater adventure, before I knew they molted. I saw the molt and was pretty disappointed, I couldnt believe I lost a cool little hermit. A week later bam there he was cleaning away. Glad to see yours is still alive.
 
I had a hermit molt within a few days of adding it to the tank. I figured that it was dead until I saw it again a few days later. Does definitly make you pause and take another look.
