Hi all,
I have a 10 gallon planted shrimp tank with cherries and amanos. There are malaysian trumpet snails and ramshorn snails. I've now seen a limpet on my cherry shrimp exoskeleton. In one instance, the shrimp's skeleton was dented in.
The tank is kinda new (it's an upgrade from my 5 gal I originally had the cherries in) because I have a scud problem and I'm trying to breed amano shrimp (the scuds came back, the very next day....). I feed the shrimp like, every other day some dennerle shrimp food and just got mineral junkie.
Has anyone ever heard of limpets attaching to cherry shrimp like that? Any suggestions on what to do?
Thanks,
chi
