Memphis118 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 Is there a cure for this in shrimp? If so, what would you use to cure it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenster Posted March 18, 2018 Report Share Posted March 18, 2018 How are your E2s doing? I just noticed one of mine has a black spot with an open lesion on the red part of his body. Since we bought our E2s from the same supplier I'm wondering if this is just a coincidence or if there is some sort of affiliation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrimp seem fine.... so we will see :). I just had a random death, and it got me worried Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a random death, and it got me worried From what I researched black spots is an indication that your shrimp may have a Chitinolytic bacterial disease. If one shrimp has it then the entire batch may eventually get infected as well. I had 5 random E2 deaths in the past 2 weeks. Never had this problem with my other PRLs (from a different supplier) before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, at the moment, I am just waiting and observing, and keeping my parameters as stable as possible and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zel Posted February 26, 2023 Report Share Posted February 26, 2023 I bought a sea monkey kit, only two survived and one started developing black spots on it. Could it potentially be the same thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
