I got a cleaner shrimp a couple of months back, and a two weeks ago I noticed it had a belly full of eggs followed by a tank full of little baby cleaner shrimp a few nights later (the clowns were super thrilled about the midnight snack). Now this morning it's got a whole new belly full of eggs. Just curious as to how frequently they typically spawn as I didn't expect it to happen again so soon.

I have one cleaner shrimp. She usually has eggs once a month unless she molts. Unfortunately, she has no man in her life so the eggs become free food.
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?
