Looking to buy some saltwater ghost shrimp. Also wondering if anyone can share their experiences breeding them i assume that someone else has already done it and any help would be great.

I don't know about ghost, but I've bought live mysis from here before when I had a seahorse tank. They cannibalize a lot so your population will drop pretty fast.

i have thought about breeding them. Is there any way to stop them from eating each other as much?

I think you need a lot of structures so they can hide and you need to separate them a lot at certain development stages for less sibling cannibalism.
