Breed Shrimp Refugium

[egriesner]

Is it possible to breed shrimp in my refugium so that my fish have a constant supply of live shrimp similar to pods? Does anyone do this? How do I start?

You can have a breeding population of mysid shrimp, but not bigger shrimp.
Just buy some and pour them into your sump/refugium (with no flow for like 10 minutes).

How is your fuge set up? It has to be set to passively flow into the tank. It there is a pump involved, everything gets chopped up before getting into your tank.

Where can one buy live mysis?

I had mysid shrimp breeding in my sump and DT up until the storm....i guess the stress killed them off but everything else in tank fuge is still breeding well
