Can Amano Shrimp eggs hatch in freshwater?

[I Like Rare Fish]

I spotted some eggs on my amano shrimp. Will they hatch in freshwater?

Most likely not they are brackish

But if you put it in. Brackish tank slowly it might hatch

Yes they do hatch but the wigglies need brackish water to survive as mentioned

Amanos are one of the few shrimps where eggs hatch to a larval stage rather than miniature adults. Like nerite snails, these larvae need salt water and microscopic algae food to survive. I had amanos for several years, the females were constantly berried but they never increased in number unlike the cherry shrimps I have now.

maybe if there is a brackish quarantine tank the wigglies could be fed GreenWater and survive
