peppermint shrimp turning white

[yothereyo]

alright guys..

My peppermint shrimp has turned white and lost its colour, its not transulcent. Just white, its tentacles still have colour and its eyes have turned dark red . its been like this for two days now, at first I thought it might be molting, but that takes a few minutes to happen from what i've see in the past, the other pepper and cleaner are both looking fine. Both the peppers are carrying eggs.

my stats are -

ammo 0ppm
nite 0ppm
nat 15ppm
SG 1024
temp 24.2c

can any one help?
thanks

When this happens, it usually means that it is about to shed its skin...It is fine....

yea as long as it doesnt stay that way its just molting but you might be low on iodine if they turn that white. do you test for or use iodine?
sometimes when there is poor iodine crabs and shrimp will shed but they wont have a strong exoskeleton and it will look dull
