I think that's a pretty hard question to answer. I've never kept track of the rate of reproduction in my tank of RCS, but they are basically like rabbits in that dep't. If they're in a 75, I'm guessing they're sharing the space with other inhabitants? Much harder to figure since it will be difficult to estimate losses as shrimplets will probably get eaten by other inhabitants of the tank. The tank parameters will also affect how "happy" they are and how quickly they reproduce.
