    you need to have conditions which are in favor to the Cherry Shrimps ( water parameter, temperatures ). Shouldn't be a problem for them if your tank is a well establish planted tank.

    hi grandjump,

    first of all, do they have a saddle of yellow or black triangular mark on the back of their head? that's the developing of the eggs. females are slightly larger than the male and have skirtings on their tail section. but other than that, the parameters are important too as said by bro eviltrain. they will need more than just a moss ball to breed
    my 100 gallon tank:
    - 23 blood parrots
    - 2 high-fin plecostomus
    my 10 gallon shrimp tank:
    - sakura, cherry, malaya, orange, snowball, tiger, bamboo
    - 3 otocinclus, 3 assassin snails

    cherry shrimps are easy to breed~ just have enough hiding spots for them. when i first started shrimps i tried cherries, they were breeding like mad.
