This morning I saw that my female Amano shrimp has eggs! I’ve read it’s very hard to breed them but is there anything I can do? Is there any article I can read about it?

I’m very much a beginner in this stuff. I have a 10 gallon fresh-water tank with 4 Amano shrimp (1 female and three males) and 5 danios. There is a bog wood covered with Java moss in the tank as well as a good amount of elodea and two pieces of some other plant (don't know its name). I set up the tank last November, and I have three of the shrimp (including the one with eggs) since January.

Thanks!

Click "search" above and type in something like "breeding amanos". Also do a web search and read up as much as you can.

I have amanos but never attempted to breed them.

Good luck.

I've been trying but not suceeded yet. My 1st two attempts are under a thread titled "my amano project". References to articles are listed there as well.
