so over the past two months i have been setting up an 18 gallon tank for a mantis shrimp.

two weeks ago my levels all hit zero, and a week later i got a couple emerald crabs and a peppermint shrimp.

they are all gonna be food, and i primarily just got the pepermint shrimp to clean up aptasia before i but tthe mantis or any corals in.

last night i noticed the pepermint shrip is loaded with eggs.

and that leaves me with a couple Q's

how long does it take for those things to gestate?
is it plasable to try and keep the hatch?
how would i go about trying to do so?

i intended for her to just get bashed when the mantis went in this weekend, but now i feel like a ****.
