It is generally not necessary to isolate cherry shrimp after holding eggs, because they will become very cautious after holding eggs. Therefore, after they hold eggs, they will look for a concealed place to protect themselves and their eggs.

In addition, cherry shrimp is gentle in character, and will not attack even if it encounters the same kind of egg-holding. If there are other shrimps in the tank, the breeder can ensure their concealment as long as he plants more aquatic plants.

Although cherry shrimp do not need isolation after embracing eggs, breeders should pay attention to the stability of water temperature and water quality. In addition, reduce the power of the filter to avoid shrimp eggs or newly hatched shrimps being sucked away by the filter.

It usually takes 10-30 days for cherry shrimp to hatch shrimp after holding eggs, but the specific hatching time depends on their fertilization and living water temperature. If shrimp eggs are fertilized well and the living water temperature can be kept above 26 ℃, it only takes about 10 days for them to hatch into shrimps. If the fertilization of shrimp eggs is not good, or if the water temperature of cherry shrimp is low, it will take them one month. Under normal feeding conditions, as long as the living temperature is suitable, they usually only need about 20 days to hatch shrimps.
