Want to breed shrimp? First, you need the right environment. Provide plenty of hiding spots with plants like Java moss, which is great for shrimplets. Make sure water parameters are stable and optimal for the species you’re breeding. Soft, slightly acidic water (pH 6.5-7.0) often works well for many species.

Healthy shrimp are active and vibrant. Look for females carrying eggs, known as being "berried". This is a sign that you’ve created a good breeding environment. Berried females will carry the eggs under their tails until they hatch.

Once the eggs hatch, baby shrimp, or shrimplets, need a clean and safe environment. Offer them fine food particles like powdered shrimp food or baby shrimp formula. Keeping the water clean is crucial for their survival. Perform regular water changes, but be gentle to avoid disturbing the delicate shrimplets.
