Wow!
This thread is the first, where I see some larvae stadiums of Atyopsis moluccensis. I have a question - My Atyopsis moluccensis female have eggs (for two weeks).
1) Do you thing, that eggs are fertile. How long can female have unproductive eggs?
2) Have you ever breed Atyopsis moluccensis from egg to mature imago?
I want to know something about salinity, water hardness, breeding larvae etc.
Thank you for answer.
P.S.
This is my Atyopsis female with eggs - http://youtube.com/watch?v=pYsnA-RCJE4

Great shot of the monster sized shrimp CHANGYI Congrats with the eggs Chem, you will find alot of information about breeding this shrimp if you do a search. The shrimp profile and several members have stated the need for saltwater to breed them.
