Breeding Amano shrimp
Has anyone tried to breed an Amano Shrimp?
I recently spotted that two Amano shrimps are full of eggs, so set a challenge to myself to breed new Amano.

Taking females out was easy same as waiting for larvae to appear.
After quite a few unsuccessful batches and experimenting with different salinity, different salt and acclimating approach I finally have around 100 larvae in a salty tank.

There are few days old now and happy swimming in 10 gallon container with salinity/gravity around 1.016, which I mixed with around 1:1 water from the freshwater tank and rest directly from the see (Arabic gulf has up to 37ppm). Air pump on and light set 24/7.
