    I was walking by the tank last night after lights out and caught sight of my larger cleaner shrimp molting. The smaller one had a hold of the one molting like it was trying to help it out of it's old exoskeleton. A short time after molting the smaller one was hanging on to the larger with their abdomens in contact, belly to belly.Anyone know what mating cleaner shrimp look like? Do they breed in aquariums?
