Can I keep them in a tank with a penguin biowheel filter ? Or do I have to use a sponge filter ?
 
Thanks just making sure lol I don't want them getting stuck in the filter or
Anything like that lol
 
Just put a sponge cover over the filter intake to prevent the babies getting sucked in...
 
i don't trust the intake not to swallow smaller shrimp/babies, so in my breeder tank, i cut up a filter sock and fixed it around the intake. it's really easy to clean because it slides off. perhaps not all shrimp would be sucked up by the filter, but if you want the best chances possible for raising shrimp then they'd appreciate a filter-cover of sorts~
 
Thanks I think I'll put a nylon over it before I start my shrimp tank
 
Aloha! Where in Hawaii are you from? I can't seem to find the CRS anywhere! a hang on filter is fine however, a sponge filter is recommended for actual breeding of the shrimp. Anyways, if can, hook me up with some Red Cherries too? lol
