yeh the toader should be fine in a few days. they tend to sulk when moved.

shrimps are a bit shy and this can depend on what fish you have. it may never come out in the light very much.

Hi m8

Where did you get the Toader and was it open fully in the shop .

Like Ben said they do sulk for a while ,,also what flow was it in and what flow is it in now .What temp is the tank water as i have found they don't like the higher temps and this will make them close until they get used to it

They are hardy so this will give you time to work out what the animal is not liking

yours

jason
