idk how to breed them...but they are by far my favorite shrimp..hopefuly by wood shrimp you mean flower, bamboo, fan shrimp...etc.


lots of common names, heres mine! his name is ledzep

hes about 3.5 inches long, which is sad because i hear they only live about a year and half...im assuming hes mature. hes molted once (that i know of) since i got him

Seems that very little success has been reported about breeding them -

"Bamboo Shrimp have rarely been successfully bred in captivity. They are low order shrimp (they hatch as larva and not miniature versions of the adults), and require salt water for the larva to grow. There is very little information about breeding this shrimp and very few people have had success."
