Hey all,
I have had a cleaner shrimp for about a month now and he was doing really well. He loved to feed from my hand and was pretty active. But lately he has been hiding and does not want to feed from my hand or even eat alot. He is coming out a bit more but he is just not himself. He did molt last Thursday if that means anything. So I was wondering if he is lonely or something seeing they live in groups in the ocean. So what do you all think, should I get him a pal? He is a skunk cleaner, thanks!!

Not sure if he's lonely but you should get a second shrimp :yes:. Two shrimp will produce eggs... great coral food.
