I was just wondering how often your shrimp molt. I got two fire shrimp about two weeks ago and they have molted 3 times. I have seen a total of 3 molts. I thought it was a lot. I could be wrong.

Mine molt once every two weeks or so. I cant really tell which one does it anymore but I do find quite a bit of shells. Thought i would throw this out there too, I had a couple emerald crabs come in and when two of them molted the first time they grew about another .5 inch. Maybe yours are just growing also or something along those lines.
