As an avid freshwater enthusiast, I absolutely love freshwater shrimp, especially since they will breed constantly and keep their populations high without much effort. Now, of course any saltwater critter might take some more elbow grease to get breeding, but I'd still love to have some version of a cherry shrimp that I could add to my macroalgae tank that would continuously breed without me having to constantly replace them, or require me to set up an elaborate kreisel tank. So far I haven't found much; sargassum and ghost shrimp seem like plausible candidates, though I haven't found much evidence that they can breed in home aquariums
Any ideas? There are so many types of shrimp in the ocean, there's got to be at least one that will breed in a home aquarium environment.
