They're quite small, industrious workers, and I hear they're easier to breed than amanos, almost as easy as ghost shrimp. Here's one of my remaining Cherry Shrimp: [/font] -Molly Visit shelldwellers.com!

Joe Potato Fish Addict Kind of a Big Deal Posts: 869 Votes: 309 Registered: 09-Jan-2001	deftly hijacks thread to ask a quick question What would be a good minimum temperature to keep them at? I would like to get some for my unheated 38 gallon, which averages 71 or 72 degrees, but I've found differing information online about what their temperature range is. Some places I've read you can keep them as low as 65, others say to not keep them below 75. Joe Potato

wheezo Fish Addict Posts: 675 Kudos: 293 Votes: 1 Registered: 22-Jul-2003	I have read that you can keep them almost as low as 50. Although, don't plan to breed them at that temperature. I think 60-80 is good. I keep them at 75F, my friend keeps them at room temperature. 69-70F He just found eggs on 2 of his shrimps.
