Immunities

[bamboo]

Are Cleaner Shrimp and Hermit Crabs immune any fish diseases? Or do fish and invertebrates pass sicknesses back and forth to each other?

Thank You

Yeah, most hard-shell inverts are immune to most fish parasiges like ich/oodinium. They CAN catch some of the same bacterium as fish, and can also contract different disseases that fish cannot. Most of the time though fish and hard-shell invert diseases are not shared.
