Hi, looking for help for my vampire shrimp. Since yesterday he's been trying to molt, his back end is stuck in his shell and has been for 24hrs.
I've lifted him out to take a look and see if I can help but his shell is still attached.
He's still eating as I've fed him.
Any help would be great appreciated as I'm concerned about him.
Here's a picture attached sorry it isn't very good.
