Hello!
So, I had a ghost shrimp for about 2/3 months or so now. When I got him, he was completely see through, and as time went on, the inside core of him started to turn an off-white yellow. I checked online and everyone seem to be saying "hes just molting soon". However, a month later he is completely off white yellow... not cloudy, completely coloured. I then noticed a small black worm like thing between the eyes kind wiggling around. I looked everywhere online and can find anyone describing this... so I am thinking... maybe it is just one of its organs. Today, I get home and notice similar black worm like things sticking outside of its carapace underneith near the head. I decide that this shrimp clearly had something living inside of it and got rid of the shrimp. The weird part was, he was pretty lively, and seemed to act pretty normal despite there being something wrong with him.
Does anyone have any idea what the hell was wrong with my shrimp, and should I be concerned about the fish in the tank?!
Thanks!
