Blackspots on the Cleaner

trea · 07-12-2006, 07:07 PM

My cleaner shrimp has these blackspots/stains on his shell. Even after he molts the stains are still there. Does anyone know what this might be. My water params are all fine and salinity is okay (1.024)

One of my skunk cleaners had them on him for about two months. They just gradually went away. He seems healthy and its been about 4 months since the spots went away.

Thanks. I haven't seen anything in his behavior that indicates he is sick just the spots. Appreciate the input
