Yet another challenge!
I bought 5 blue velvet shrimp on thursday and noticed white things on the head of two of them, they looked just like pictures showing sculariella.
The shop offered a refund and gave me some salt to treat them with however they hadn't experienced this before so were not much help in explaining the treatment other than dip them.
What I have read on web is to dip the shrimp into 1tsp salt dissolved into 1cup aquarium water for 60 seconds and the 'beasties' should come off. Didn't happen! I will repeat tomorrow .
Has anyone had this and treated it? Any info appreciated.
