Breeding Bamboo?

[jamesstill84]

Anyone know if/how you breed Bamboo Shrimp?

Take a look at this (http://mikes-machine.mine.nu/breeding_yamato.htm) and this (http://caridina.japonica.online.fr/English/Elevage.htm) page. Overall, the breeding procedure will be roughly the same.

i was under the impression that they were rarely, if ever bred in captivity. Are bamboo shrimp the 3" or so filter feeders they sell at petco?

[vampie]

Yes, that's the one Petco sells.

I've rarely heard of anyone breeding them in captivity.

I have eight baby bamboos,2 of which or only like a eighth of a inch.Were amazed finding babys,especially since the tank has platys and tetras in it.
