To be honest, I made too many mistakes to begin with. I had 24 shrimp to be begin and ended up with 21. The three were either dead from my wrong salinity/accident while change containers... I used to change water once a few days, change the landscape of rocks, change substrate, overfeeding and etc. This lasted about 3 months before I began to realize I should stop bothering the shrimp. So I decide to finalize my setup( three weeks ago) with two containers( 2 and 3 gallon each ), and each has about 10 ish shrimp.
I made sure my saltility is at around 1.01-1.012, and also PH at 8.2-8.4. I put it at a place with indirect sunlight with light bulb on the hood for 4-10 hours per day. I fed them with fish food flakes(after grinded to small pieces) once in a while(5-10 days ish).
And finally, after 2 weeks of no disturbance at all, I see a shrimp with enlarged belly, which I already know It's a sign of berried. On the next day I got home from work, I witnessed the whole scene of eggs coming out to her belly from her egg sac. I also recorded a video of the whole scene for about 10 mins( poor quality tho). That was that fast! It looks like she has about 20ish eggs. I hope she will be holding on to all of it. I heard that the temperature is also pretty important with regard to breeding, so I will maintain my room to be around 70-75 degrees to be safe.
I am not sure this means a success of my care or I am just lucky. These creatures are very easy to be disturbed and will be easily upset. The easy way is to provide enough hiding places, make sure they have food, good water paraters(light is necessary to maintain ph) and also little disturbance. I will be glad if someone gives me advice what to improve!
I don't know if that usual.
