I just noticed one of the peppermint shrimp in my tank is carrying a serious load of eggs under her (do males carry, too?) tail.

Should I quarantine her?

Dylan, here's a good read.

This one is even more comprehensive.

There is an interesting theory that the male and female peppermint shrimp reverse roles as related to egg laying and fertilization. This apparently happens after each spawning. Just a theory that is being researched more.

Have fun grandpa :biggrin:
