Hey, brand new to this forum and just looking for a bit of advice. I have three ghost shrimp in my community tank. Two males and one female. 

They appear to be molting A LOT. Like I must have seen atleast 4 in the past two weeks...is this normal? I've heard molting can be a sign of I'll health. 

But they're all active and what not. 

Any advice would be fab please!

Hi Orla,

 

Molting is actually a sign of good health. It just means that your shrimp are growing quickly and thus, need to shed their exoskeleton more often to accommodate their growth so I wouldn't be too worried about it :)
