Hi I'm looking for advice regarding one off my 3 year old vampire shrimp. He molted a few day's ago and I noticed yesterday that he's got only 1 leg, this hasn't happened to any off my shrimp before and I'm pretty devastated for him. He's still feeding away and I put him near the flow. I'm wondering will it grow back through another molt?
There's nobody in the tank to harm him so he will be left alone. It's just so sad to see.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Most shrimps do regrow missing limbs, either at the next moult or the one after. As long as he is healthy just keep an eye on him.

That's what I'm hoping for. I'll keep a close watch on him.
Thank you

I will.
He wasn't so good today, I had to find somewhere to put him near the flow but wasn't going to blow him away. We got there in the end.
