Hi, i received a bunch of shrimps from my Aunt's colleague a week ago, and have been keeping them in a 2 gallon tank. They are doing well, eating and swimming around.
I seem to have grew more interest in the shrimps and was wondering what species these shrimps are.

Here are some pictures:

Questions i would like to know.
1) Is anything missing in my tank?
2) Is it possible for the shrimps to breed in my tank?
3) Do shrimps eat their babies?
4) How can we tell the gender of a shrimp?

Thank you. (:

This should give you a good starting point for your extensive research that, I am sure, you are about to engage in:

The answers to whatever questions remain after that can be found all over this forum and the website. In general it's always a good idea to do the research first, and then ask questions as most questions have been asked (and answered) multiple times over the years.

Having said that, good luck with your new shrimp!
