I wouldn't necessarily worry - if it looks healthy and is eating!

Yep looks fine I just need he eats or at least he tries I Just need a better way to target feed him cause fish bearly let him grab a bite (feed brine shrimp)

My fire shrimp sheds literally Bi-weekly. Shed is a sign of growth and health and not a bad thing

Mine sheds all the time. Leave the molt in the tank. They will eat it and reclaim lost calcium.

Good to know I’m on the right track tks.

Nope it’s a growing shrimp! Mine sheds pretty frequently and has about doubled in the past few months as he was a little baby when I first got him.
