I seen where a crab in my tank molted. Should I try and get the molted she’ll out if I can.
 
My Hermit and Coral Banded Shrimp molt all the time. I leave things to take their natural course, adds nutrients and calcium back into the tank. The Ca is really a balance thing as the animals will consume more Ca to grow their new shell so leaving the molt to rot helps there.
 
I leave mine in. They get eaten.
