The next time it molts it will have perfectly good, full length legs.
That's great that they made it.
Shrimp even jump out of nets for me.

Mark, you need to learn the art of holding your net vertical so it closes the opening.

I'll pass that on to Eric too.
I feel silly making all these assumptions about the reason for the Grim Reaper's visit when in the end the PS were okay. As I spoke to SMatney describing the sillyness of my posts, I started to really crack up, laughing at myself.  Jumping Shrimp.  She pointed out how much other useful info was shared in the course of this thread, like Jamison simply tieing the tubing in a knot to create a drip. She's very right.

Yeah, but I failed to mention that I had a cleaner shrimp jump right out of my hands and fall 5 feet to the carpet that very day.... I was enjoying your ribbing so much, I didn't want to confess and draw the attention away from you Mark. P.S. the cleaner shrimp is fine.

If the shrimp lasts till its next molting then it will have perfect legs. But I have a feeling that it MAY not. I had peppermint shrimp preyed upon by bristleworms. Never thought I'd see that happen. But this is more likely with smaller shrimp. Larger ones should do fine.

Just an update:
The shrimp made it. It spouted little nubbs and after a couple more days, he was walking around on tiny legs.
Thanks everyone for your comments and advice. Sorry to mislead everyone.
