Skunk Cleaner Molting

[petoonia]

I have had 2 skunk cleaner shrimp for about 2 months. In this amount of time I have found about 7 molts. Is this normal? They are getting huge!

Sounds normal to me. :D

Mine molt about every two weeks. The more you feed them the faster they'll grow and molt. They also need iodine to molt and I think I read somewhere that high iodine levels in the tank will cause them to molt more often.
