Also I add phytoplankton 2 x week and use 2 part cal & alk additive.

i've found that when my sally molts it will hide for a day or 2. i think this is because it takes a little while for the new shell to harden. if its not a molt, maybe it died of old age?

No it wasn't a molt. The smaller sally molted about three days after I got it. This sally was rather large, I guess I'll concede to old age. Damn it's tough getting old! Thanks for your input!!
