Growth rate for RCS is usually around 3 to 6 weeks, depending how good your water conditions are, how often you feed them, and what kind of tank mates they have (stress level factor).

Gestation period for RCS is the fastest when the perfect water conditions is given to them with a water tank temperature of around 75 to 76 F (around 2.5 to 3 weeks).

So that is all I have experienced so far.

For other types of shrimps, these numbers I have stated will not be the same.

Do the cherry shrimp lay these eggs or carry them until they hatch?

So do I need to get the eggs out if the shrimp dropped them?
