Zulu, if I am not mistaken Cleaner shrimp are difficult to raise in captivity but the peppermint shrimp are easy to raise. I find just using a foam filter helps alot of the baby shrimp grow up.

[zulu_principle]

Not true, most of the principles can be transfer from peppermint to raising the lavae of cleaner shrimp.
