How quickly do cherry shrimp grow?

I picked up a dozen all about 1cm long for £2.95 each (ouch) lol

They are cool critters!! I had about 30 of them at one point and mine never got any bigger than around 1 inch, under alittle actually. The gals get redder and bigger than the guys did. They love java, peacock moss, pretty much all live plants and do well with snails and pretty much any very small peaceful fish!! Have fun with the little Shrimpies hehe!!! (I don't know if thats a word but I thought I'd try to use it anyway!!!)

It takes about 3 months to go from birth to 5 cm here.

We sell our females for $3, which I believe is less than a pound, each.

5cm... isn't that like almost 2 inches? Those are huge!!!!! Mine were small ones LOL!!!!

Dino

Yes, it is 2 inches.
We have had dozens of females get that big.
