just a dot or lot of dots? what is your water temperature and PH level? How old is yr tank and how long already the shrimps are inside there?

get some advice, it could be white spot, but, but normally white spot will have many dots on their body.

try to change 20% of water. put a table spoon of sea/raw salt(if yr tank is 2ft). lower down the ph
