Hi, I was just wondering if Amano Shrimp could survive in low-mid end brackish water. I'm not sure if this should be in marine since I have low-mid end brackish water, but I know that Amano Shrimp are "freshwater" shrimp.
All I know is that Amano shrimps have larva that best thrive when kept in brackish and marine conditions.
I want to stress that this shrimp can only be propagated if its larvae are transferred into saltwater/brackish water and back into freshwater when the larvae develop into postlarvae (i.e. mini-shrimp).. There are some dubious reports on the internet (one with a picture of an amphipod/scud claiming to be a "baby amano") purporting the "breeding" of this shrimp in total freshwater, but these "reports" are not to be trusted.
I wouldn't say the internet is misleading on their breeding, I've only seen one report of someone claiming to have bred amanos in freshwater, which actually turned out to be scuds.
