What are my cleaner shrimps doing?
They were in the corner in the sand bed for a few days. Both acting lame and not doing what they usually do. Now they have separated to complete opposite of the tank. One more lame than the other. They didn’t eat a few nights ago and I think one is “worse” than the other. I did notice one is eating more / seems more normal now. As he’s climbing rocks and going on the carpet anemone.
They seem a bit weak, And they arent swimming about like usual. They are just there in that corner. Or they were close to each other. One of them laid on their side a bit and was wiggling their inner feet. But would get back up
The one that looks the worst that moved from this corner almost looks like he may be a little fat. I was thinking he could be pregnant. but his shell looks a little dingy and he’s starting to get almost like algae on his tentacles. He isn’t moving much but if I put my tongs in he will wake up and bolt
My parameters seem good but they are from Wednesday. I got covid so I’ll be testing again tomorrow. Lol
Sal 1.026
Alk 8.4
Phosphates .067
Ph 8.0
Magnesium 1470-1500
Calcium 460
Any ideas?
