So...it's official. I have 2 females and 1 male ghost shrimp. I was hoping my other female would wait a little longer before she laid eggs, but apparently my shrimp are extremely happy in my tank. My other female just showed up with eggs (1 week after my other). Between the two, I expect little swimming shrimp larvae in about 3-5 weeks. I'm not shutting my pump off or removing my fish so there's a good chance most of them will die, which is good because I have a 6gal tank. I can't raise a ton of shrimp! It'll get too crowded. Sad, but the truth. I suppose I should wait to change my filters till after they hatch now....
