Claim checked: "A failed molt means the shrimp needs more calcium"

What is supported: mineral availability and water chemistry matter to exoskeleton biology.

What is not established: one incomplete molt identifies a calcium deficiency, proves low GH caused it or validates adding a mineral product.

Do next: distinguish the animal from an exuvia, measure immediate water hazards and preserve the event history.
