They breed easily, but with those fish, the young will get eaten. The angels may try to eat even the adults.

I keep RCS in their own tank. Only other critters with them are 2 otos and a hillstream loach. And yep, they do breed easily. The fish you have will definitely have a good seafood dinner out of RCS. The only thing our RCS shrimplettes (fry) worry about is me sucking them up during a water change.

angels love cherry shrimp. a sponge filter is great for a shrimp tank. what i suggest to people is set up a tank on their own once they start breeding you can move some of the extras over. this way you didnt just pay for a snack and still have a supply to restock the other tank.
as for breeding there is 2 sex and the female holds the eggs until they hatch.

Ours are kept at 76 degrees, lots of plants, rocks, and DW.
If you can't resell them to your LFS, try CL. You can get rid of anything on CL. Out here we also have a yahoo group called FreeCycle. Everything is free or trade. We got rid of tons of platy and guppy fry. You might want to check into if your area has that.

talk to them and ask. many lfs should buy them more so since you could sell them cheaper their their wholesalers. it saves them money.ive also been looking into these shrimp. they seem like a good, idea, only problem i can see is not being able to resell them to the pet store once im crawling with them lol. unless he uses them for food
