    My coral banded shrimp molted a few minutes ago...in front of me! I watched the whole thing and have the shell on a piece of paper on my desk. Feelers and all, but I broke a claw... That was absolutely crazy! He wiggled, looked like he blew himself up a little and then "backed" out of it! I jumped to get my camera and the stupid battery was dead ughhhhhhhhh! I'll take pics of the shell when the batteries recharge....

    Good score gras! I got home from work and found the molt from mine today(stuck to my koralia, freaked me out for a minute, got the flashlight out even). Is there a full moon or, something? Wish i could have seen it.
