Sorry to hear about your loss.... the eggs/larvae don't survive anyway unless you have special tanks....

So it is possible ???? I do have another tank thats a 20 tall with just some clown gobies & we did have our eel in it however he commited suicide yesterday on bad advice from the gobies, " they said that there were bigger fish to eat next door

& he believed them, mainly I use it for to top off the evap on my 75 and quarintine if need be. Its just sitting there. My angels are just looming over him looking so sad......if I can try I would like to save them however I know nothing about breeding shrimp.

Rearing the babies is a difficult and tedious proposition under normal circumstances when you are already prepared and producing live foods. I would say these are a lost cause.
