The cherry shrimp may eat its own baby. However, this possibility is very low, only in the extreme lack of food environment, or water quality is particularly poor, shrimp shell weak when it is likely to eat. Besides, they can't eat much. If the newborn shrimp babies disappear in a few days, they are likely to be eaten by fish in the same tank. Many fish like to eat newborn shrimps.
Cherry shrimp shrimp is not necessary to be raised separately. One reason is that they have a strong reproductive capacity and can produce many shrimps at a time, even if they are eaten by a small number of young shrimps. The second reason is that they are kept in the same tank, and when they grow up, they can reproduce again, so that it is easier to burst the tank. However, if there are fish in the tank, they need to be raised separately to avoid the shrimp being eaten up.
Cherry shrimp life is not long, but the growth rate is faster. Generally, as long as the environment is suitable and there is enough food, shrimps can grow to about 2 cm in length about three months after birth, and have the ability to reproduce the next generation. But if the breeding environment is not very suitable, their growth rate will slow down a lot.
