Egg Hatching Period

[KUNJULAKSHMI K]

I found 2 gravid females in my freshwater caridina tanks. I am planning to transfer them to another tank before it hatch to avoid any stress. The eggs are kinda dark or black now. How long it  will take to hatch? Please give your valuable suggestions on when I should transfer them to another tank?

Usually eggs are about 30 days from start to hatching! Unless there are predators in the tank (fish etc) then the shrimp can be left in the tank they are in and the shrimplets should be fine. I would think they are not far off hatching, so within about a week. If you still want to seperate the berried female so the shrimplets are born in a different tanks just make sure you use the water from the original tank but moving her/them will actualy cause them some stress so unless there is a specific reason I would just leave them where they are!
