Ok so none of our fish has ever had ick. But I know that tangs almost always get it. So..... here is my question. My LFS said that Marine Max will help to control and get rid of the ick. Thought on this? LFS said that it is better than using chemicals and what not.

So should I be worried that my cleaner shrimp molted just 48 hrs after I added him to my tank? I know it is normal for them to molt but I have also heard that they will do this due to stress is that true? And if so what stresses a cleaner shrimp out? Water is good: SP 1.023 Temp 77 Nitrate 0...
