in front of my cichla tank,IL
so my coral banded shrimp molted the other day and i noticed that he doesnt have his claws is this normal for when they molt, will they grow back eventually?
 
That is not normal. Take a closer look though, as the coloration may not be quite there because of the recent molting, and they may be hard to see.
 
i didnt see any just looked at it right now but before he molted i noticed my clownfish messing with him. will the 2 claws grow back??
 
They will
 
He'll get them back after his next molt.

Makes you kinda wish humans did it the same way.
 
Dunno if I would want an exoskeleton, because then my farts would be highly offensive to me.
