I have 4 ghost shrimp (had them about 2 weeks) in a 28 gallon aquarium with 2 dwarf frogs, 6 white clouds, and 6 neon tetras and the ghost shrimp all look like they developed ich...but I've read online here that ghost shrimp can't get ich...so whats up with my shrimp. All 4 of them have white./yellowish spots which are slowly starting to cover their whole bodies. I put some Cure - Ich in, but if its not ich, what can I do?


FYI - The tank has been running for a couple months now and tested regularly with safe readings in all catagories.
 
first off i think most inverterbates are sensitive to ich meds - so that might kill them -


ghost shrimp have spots on them that are white-ish - they are prob fine - if there is in ich in your tank your fish will show it too - especially before shrimp which can't get it normally
 
This stuff said it was OK for inverterbrates and none of the fish are showing signs...The spots at first I didnt worry about but they seem to be growing. One of the shrimp seems like its completly covered with it. I am new with ghost shrimp (my gf thought they were cute so we got some) and was just worried about the little buggers...
