    One of my so called ghost shrimp has gotten a bit cloudy recently. I cleaned out the tank and made shure that they had enough food. So far the other hasn't changed. I did leave the house for a while and so couldn't do water changes. Anyway, I was wondering if she would eventually lose the cloudy-ness and get back to her normal color-less body... By the way, they're both eating as always... like pigs. Their behavior hasn't changed.

    if i am not wrong, they are dying. i had over 20 of them in my tank and i notice that when they are about to die, their body will change into a cloudy colour, abit like when it is cooked. the strange thing is when they die, their body is red, just like a fully cooked prawn. really weird.

    Well, turns out that it was probably due to the water quality. Two days after I cleaned it up, and giving them algae from my garden pond both are as colorless as when I got them. Anyway, Thanks!
