How to raise baby shrimp? Please help!

[PleaseHelp]

I hvae 4 shrimp in a 3 gallon tank with gravel and a plant. They are active little guys, i just got them. I fed them a little pellet they came with and they ate some. How often do i feed them? What do i do? Pls help!

You can just feed them once a day or once every other day and they will be fine.

Shrimps are always on then hunt for food, so they won't starve.

Usually you would feed them what they can eat in 2hours.

Also, do drop some moss in the tank if you only have 1 plant...

They are sensitive to ammonia so keep an eye on that.

I've found adding a sponge filter works really well for feeding shrimp. I run one in my 10g instead of an air stone and the shrimp always go and feed off it. It also helps if they're in a tank with other fish to make sure they get food


Keep calm and drum on

This is a niche 3-5 gal that's not even for fish specifically. It's a plastic thing for animals
I can't put a filter in
I'm just growing them in there so they arent lunch in my 50 gal

Java moss tend to be ridiculously expensive. Lol check the classified section you should find.
