will shrimps re-generate limbs?

[shawnc9]

I am wondering if anyone here had experience with shrimps re-generating limbs and feelers after a bad molt? I got a CRS who survived a bad molting experience but is still hanging on. I was hoping it will make a full recovery. Its a hardy little bugger.

yes the limbs will grow back. but you will have to wait till it molts again. maybe the limbs will take a few molts before they get back to their original size, but i am very sure that your shrimp will make a full recovery

From my experience of shrimp keeping, the missing limbs didn't seems to recover back and eventually the shrimp will get weaker and eventually up the lorry.

Hopefully so. In the meantime I'll have to make sure it eats well. Haha.

If it doesn't survive.. well, I hope it wasn't too painful.
