There is a stargate in my aquarium.
i am going to keep them there, but move the parents and the shrimp to a new tank.
Will the parents cannibalize their young?

nah, just too much bioload for the tank as the clutches (and this is a big one) can produce anywhere from 50-200 (normally around 100) young. that's alot in addition to 100 cherry shrimp and 3 adult brigs. Plus the babies do best in an established tank so i will move the adults who are easier to feed and the shrimp instead of the egg clutch.

i would to be safe the clutch doesnt fall or slide into the water is to put or attach some kind of shelf below the clutch if you intend on keeping them on the glass, as i have experienced them falling and sliding.

once dry enough you can use a credit card to slide them off with.
