Is this shrimp molting normally and I am worried about the green spot in the middle. Should I be worried and what must be done to get that shrimp healthy?

If those are eggs about to develop and move towards the area under the tail to grow into fry , or a saddle before the eggs are fertilized, then it would have molted before they developed. Due to the clear spaces on the shell you can see inside better. I can see spaces where you have a clear line between segments on the tail.

Make sure you are feeding a high quality shrimp food with minerals for the shrimp to molt easily. And mama will molt after the babies leave.
 
Is this shrimp dying or molting? I did not see this shrimp there just few mins later taking this video. So I don't know what happened.
