i too would like to see ghost shrimp reproduce in my tanks.
they are interesting little critters.
i find them local in chattanooga tho which i thought was suprising.
they will often soon dissappear when i put them in planted tanks. ?
my best success has been in keeping them in outdoor pools... they even make
it thru the winter... tho dont reproduce.
in my bottle tank experiments they only last a few months.
hum... iodine. i will try that.
i do have one giant freshwater shrimp in a heavily planted and populated 55
florida tank. he is so big that the fish cant work on him.
