    lionfish died this morning

    coral banded shrimp 2 or more?

    I have had mine for 8 months and he is with a fire shrimp and 7 pepermints. They all get along. But the CBS is the king. I have noticed in the last few months my CBS had started getting a green coloring on his back just behind his head. Anyone ever see this?
