coco
Amano Shrimp, Algae Eating Shrimp, Yamato Shrimp, Japonica / Caridina multidentata (formerly known as Caridina japonica)
Will and do breed in Fresh Water,
After the Larvae hatch and leave the Females tale they require Brakkish / Salt Water to develope.
A picture of the Adult Shrimp would be helpful to correctly identify the Shrimp.

Are there any other Shrimp in the tank ?Normal: larvae go through several planktonic stages before metamorphosing into post-larvae (miniature shrimp) and assuming a benthic lifestyle. For this process they need brackish water to full strength saltwater.

Re: yamato shrimp
Please help me.
I had just bought 2 Yamato Shrimps at night, they seemed pretty fine. The next day however, only one shrimp was left! There was no way they could have jumped out as the tank was pretty high and there was no sign of any injuries/blood. Please help me as i'm getting worried. i put in some food but it still did not come out. Please Please help help me me.
