Ghost shrimp with Eggs?
maybe if anyone can advise me on this subject, I don't anything except how to feed them, My passion is Guppies...... I got a Ghost shrimp about 2 or 3 months ago, she was pretty small, not at all the size that she is today. She was probably about 1/2" long and from so many times she has molted, she is about 3/4" long today. Well, on to my story.... She molted yesterday and then I saw that she had some eggs in her tummy , between her bottom legs and her actual bottom belly.... It looks like she shouffles them up and down. They are a light green. I watch for changes in my tank every day so I know she wasn't like that the day before yesterday....Here are my questions:
1. How did she get pregnant if I don't have any other shrimp?
2. Could she have been pregnant when I bought her?
3. How long will it be until she lays them or until they hatch?
4. Will she eat her eggs after she lays them or after they hatch?
5. Do I have to move her from a community tank before she lays?
6. and if I do have to move her, can it be to a fishbowl with treated water?
