How often do ghost shrimp breed? When guppies breed do they lay eggs somewhere and guard them. and if they do can you just put them in a seperate place where they can have a better chance to live
 
Guppies are live bearers, which means the babies are not laid but are born alive and whole and swimming, just small. no idea on the ghost shrimp though.
 
How often do ghost shrimp breed? I don't know, but you can see when the females have eggs. When they do, the eggs will hang underneath the female. But I believe you need brackish water to raise them though.
Guppies can be placed in a breeder net in the tank. Once the female has spawned, remove her, and raise the fry in there, untill they are large enough to swim around with the rest of the tankmates.
But be warned........you don't want too much guppies either. They're a pain to get rid of! :lol:
