Anyone ever try raising cleaner shrimp babies?

    My cleaner shrimp releases a batch every 2 months or so. 99% of the time they get eaten by the tank inhabitants but has anyone ever tried growing them out? I hear it isn't worth the effort. I wouldn't mind having a few more just incase the parents decide to kick the bucket one day. They are awful expensive.

    Probably would be hard for you to find the right foods for the larval stage. I really know nothing about rearing them, but i would assume it isn't something someone without a lot of free time would be able to do.
