Black Rose Shrimp are prolific breeders in stable and healthy conditions. Females carry eggs under their abdomen, and in a few weeks, juveniles emerge fully formed. To ensure the safety of young shrimp, provide plenty of dense plants or moss for hiding. Offspring inherit the stunning black coloration of their parents, making them ideal for growing your shrimp colony.
