hi
im going to try & breed from our amano shrimp, ive got some good articles on how to do it but im not sure how to make & measure the concentration to make the water in the breeding tank salty at the correct ppm. i know i need to remove the female shrimp after the eggs are dropped and then make it salty but how much. our little tank is 7L. i have aquarium salt & also a hygrometer?- but its a wine making one can i use this or am i being completely stupid.??? anyone know how much salt to add to 7l to make good conditions for my shrimp babies???
any help most appreciated
thanks
 
We have a veteran shrimpy doing the exact sameyhing so you might want to shoot her a PM :good:. On the hydrometer front I have no idea, I would assume it would be the same but you need marine salt not tonic aquarium salt which you hadn't made clear.
