Cleaner shrimp has eggs....

[two-rocks]

I'll try to get a good shot when she is near the glass.

I'm not sure If I'll be able to raise them (we are going to be on vacation about the time the eggs hatch and I guess they need live brine).

I think I may setup a 10 gal 'just in case they hatch early' tank, guess I need a brine hatchery as well.

Anyone have success breeding them?

they're basically going to be fish food......

Thought I could take her out just before they hatch (change color from green to silver).

The fish are all in quarantine, so I guess they'd be invert or coral food.

Impossible to get them to grow out in captivity...(well I'm sure it is possible but just not worth what it would take)

The corals will love the babies...My shrimp lay eggs every 2 months....usually on or around a full moon....when is the next one??? something about that gravitational pull!!! Like other things people don't think follow the 28 day lunar cycle!!

Well that's too bad. I wanted to have a tank full of them...

the bottom of the above linked page made it sound possible, with only requiring multiple brine hatcheries (to be able to feed repeated newly hatched brine).

Oh well, guess I need to check the moon cycle and try to watch that evening....
