Poll: Anyone keeping shrimp?

[J-P]

If you are keeping shrimp we'd like to know: what species it is, what you are feeding and if it is SW or FW.

I've got Red Cherry Shrimp(RCS) FW. I feed them fish food,and crumbled up algae waffers.

I can't seem to get them to stop breeding.

I just started keeping shrimp and I want to do a 75 gallon planted aquarium with only shrimp in there. I'm going to do it this winter with a aquarium I just picked up a month ago.

I also keep red cherry shrimp, along with dwarf cajun crays. I feed algae wafers, (dead) maple and oak leaf, viola, dandelion. I've only had them about a month and every single female is either pregnant or saddled; p

I used to breed cherry shrimp. I also have bred crayfish too. Right now I am not breeding anything, but will be starting up crayfish again soon.

very cool

I really need this feedback. It is a marketing question for my wife and your input is very valuable.

Thank you very much!

By the way, I fed them crushed algae wafers, tropical flakes, spirulina flakes, tubifex worms, Blanched romaine lettuce and cucumber, spinach etc.

I am breeding Cherry Shrimp. Got a group of 12 for a rescue I had, and there are now over two dozen. Looks like a female is holding right now.
I feed them pellets and flakes.

I am keeping shrimp and I guess I'm breeding them too. They breed pretty easily on their own

I have cherry shrimp and malawa shrimp. They eat bottom feeder wafers, catfish pellets, zuchini. They eat every other day and breed constantly.
