Question About Cameroon Armoured Shrimp

[daiprice]

Hi Folks, I'm new to the site, and have a question. I bought an armoured shrimp last weekend, and put him in my shrimp tank. today I found what I hope was a moult. when therse guys moult, do they leave the green claws on the moult? the rest of the moult was transparent. As I've only got armano's to campare it to I'm a bit puzzled

Thanks
Dave

what do you mean green claws? these shrimp have fans not pincers

sorry, i meant legs

oddly enough I've just noticed a moult in my tank.
and yes the leg part is very dark compaired to the rest of the moult.

Thanks Wolf. thats made me feel a lot better. The shrimp is obviously hiding while it hardens off hopefully then. Do you have more than one of them in a tank? I was wondering if they were happier in a group, but at £12.99 a pop i thought i'd try one in there first B)
