Been breeding red cherry shrimps for quite a while now, and I want to start selling them for ($1.75 each/or 8 for $12). Male shrimps will stay at $1.75 and Female w/eggs will be $2.50. Red Cherry Shrimps are known as attractive shrimps with red and white coloration on its body. They are a great clean-up crew for most community tanks as they will devour algae and even filter feed from the substrate of the tanks to maintain a healthy aquarium. Can feed shrimp pellets or almost any boiled vegetable given lightly; can be fed every other day since they eat algae. TRADE: Willing to trade shrimps for shrimps/plants, but need to see it first before making the trade arrangement. Email me first at minluu17@yahoo.com then we can make an arrangement if you're a serious buyer then I'll give my phone #.

No, but I did just buy 20 off of ebay. I got them on tues or wed. They are so tiny man! How long does the grow out take? I also just saw someone post blue pearl shrimp on craigslist so I'm going to pick up some of those. Any reason you have the screens on the sides of the tank? Also, I'm using a penguin 100 bio wheel filter on a 10g. Will that suck up babies if they have them? Should I do something different? Also, with only shrimp in the tank, how often should I water change?

I think around a month to become adult. yeah i saw someone selling blue pearl shrimps too on craigslist and just start a planted 20g long tank for the blue pearls when i get them. if u are wondering the black things on the side of my tank it is java moss, im making java moss wall and yes the filter will suck up the babies unless u put something over it like a filter net or some sort of filter sponge and just to let u know wheel filter isnt that gud it will stop moving in like 3week or so. I suggest u get Aqua clear power filter. If u want to do something different to ur tank just add plants..try something new u know. if u have 20 shrimps probably 3weeks or a month.
 
Why do you think the wheel will stop turning? I've had it running for 8 months now, is there something about keeping shrimp? Do you mean with a sponge or net over the intake that it won't have enough power to keep the wheel moving with a flow of water?

the wheel just accumulate alot of stuff and just stop moving. yeah go google lol. yeah the net or sponge filter over the intake like mines in the last pic. yeah ur right about slowing it down but if u buy the right sponge or net not will happen.
