Generally, they don't need isolation after holding eggs, because their awareness of prevention and self-protection will improve after holding eggs, and they will find a safe place to avoid them until the small fish hatch successfully. When they hold eggs, the breeder only needs to ensure that there are enough aquatic plants in the tank or there are gaps in Stone to avoid.
But if the breeder keeps ornamental shrimp and ornamental fish together, they need to be isolated after the shrimp holds eggs. Because ornamental shrimps attract fish after holding eggs, if fish are carnivorous, they are likely to be eaten by fish.
2. How to raise shrimp after holding eggs1. Hiding house: Shrimp will choose a hidden place to hide after holding eggs, and breeders need to prepare enough aquatic plants for them, or build several hiding houses with Stone. Also avoid light, because female shrimps like dark and quiet environment when hatching shrimps.
2. Water quality: After embracing eggs, ornamental shrimps have higher requirements for water quality and are sensitive to the fluctuation of water quality. Breeders can decide the frequency of water change according to the water quality of their lives, but the amount of water change should not be too large, and it can be controlled at one third of the total amount of water.
3. Feeding: Ornamental shrimps need more nutrients after holding eggs. Breeders can choose to feed them every evening, and the amount of feeding is only 1% of their body weight. Usually, you can feed some snail meat, clam meat, fish meat, etc., but you should chop them up before feeding them.
