Just bought two ghost shrimp, and saw that one had eggs. I was going to put them in with my betta, but am deciding to keep them separate with some feeder fish in a tank. I have never had them before, I did research before buying, but I never read about breeding. Please give me some info on how to take care of the female and her fry when the eggs hatch.
 
I think they develop the eggs before they're fertilized? So it only really matters if your other shrimp is a male (i dont know how to tell). Plus when ghost shrimp are moved they tend to lose their eggs from stress anyway.
