What are some easy crustaceans to breed?

[Terrance]

Red clawed crab or fiddlers easy to breed? Any other shelled animals?

Fiddlers are impossible to breed. If I understand it correctly the young grow in the open ocean as phytoplankton. Some will report babies are born, but quickly disapear.

Shrimp such as RCS reproduce like crazy. Most shrimp will breed for you. Dwarf cray like CPO's. Apple snails. Nerite snails will in a brackish environment.

Any of the Neocaridina species of shrimp are easy to breed, just be careful not to mix species the will crossbreed.

Wow I can't believe that chart hasn't been revised to include new species and varieties yet.

Uh oh. I haven't even looked at it in ages. I guess you're right, it is in need of an update.
