Ive been treating some of my shrimp with a salt dip as they seem to have Scutariella. Ive been removing any molts i see as well, and on the off chance decided to take a closer look to see if any parasites on there.

Hi all,

decided to take a closer look

It is a <"water mite">, they are really common in freshwater, and have a very large range of lifestyles, so it might feasibly be parasite, but my guess is almost certainly not.

Yeah sounds good.

Ive also seen another example of small clear organisms inside the actual skeleton. Looked like tiny air bubble but they were alive.
