a few people have bred fire and cleaner shrimp they are quite difficult and most of the people who have succesfully raised them keep their info to themselves.

I would really appreciate your source of info Tayler (love your Avatar) as I have heard it hasn't been done in Cleaners. I really wanted to try as mine are both doing their egg thing, but was informed it hasn't been done. Could your find out for us? If it is possible, I might not give up yet.

It has been done but the larvae stay in the plankton for a _long_ time. Luis has done it. Here's his RC thread:
http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh...hreadid=846955 I'm not sure if that's the thread where he finally gets one through or not. Regardless, tons of information in there.

Mine breed all the time but they are in display tanks and the babies become fish/coral food.
