I want to start breeding red cherry shrimp, any advice? Or tips?
 
Just add water. Lol. Stable water parameters and mine love hornwort. It seems like the tanks I have a ton of floaters and logs in, the better the breeding. They are pretty easy to breed just make sure there's lots of "dirty" things in the tank. They love to clean and eat the crud in the tank
 
Just make it shrimp only and add lots of cover. They love sponge filters, so tank size depending use 3-4 times the sponge filter capacity needed. Also, don't over feed.
 
I can't get mine to breed :( I'm down to 9 now, but I have a mix of males and females. I'm constantly looking for eggs, lol!

Red cherry shrimp breed without provoking once the water parameters are good and you have males and females of course.
