    Hi guys! I bought a batch of fire red sakuras shrimps about a month ago... The bag came with a pregnant shrimp and so far i see quite a lot of shrimplets in my tank already. But the problem is they are not breeding in my main tank... any suggestions for me that i can help them to breed comfortably?

    Tank: 7.1pH, temperature around 29degree centigrade.

    Thanks!
    Cheers!

    Maybe all the adult shrimps in the bag were female.

    In your last supper picture, all your shrimps looks female. In fact, all the shrimps in all the pictures looks female.

    There's no painted Fire Red male around. Even if there is, the male may not be fertile. The best colouring for the male is sakura.
