Mine do this too, and when I researched what to do to raise them, I
gave up immediately. Think about the need for a brackish tank, hourly
feedings.......there were frightenening few documented cases of
successful breeding by the home aquarist. If you find any good info,
post it!

Google is your fried. A while ago someone posted a link to an excellent
web page on raising amanos. Go to groups.google.com and look for it.
For what it's worth, unless you're an experienced aquarist with lots of
time and resources to spare, don't bother. :)

Fried? Freudian slip? Don't mention fried in a shrimp thread. My
mouth watered.
