Opae Ula question

[Anabantiformes]

Picked up a few opae ula(Hawaiian red shrimp) from a fish swap a few days ago. Few questions
1)I wa told there were 5 in the 1 gallon tank but there are only 3 what are the chances I have both sexes that can Brees
2)where can I get more online?
3) there is a random crab in the tank should I take him out or...?

A fellow Opae keeper! I’d leave the crab, he’s probably fine, but keep an eye on it in case it dies and begins to rot. GotShrimp on Ebay is my go-to for more shrimps, which you will probably need.

Tysm! The SG was 1.022 should I be worried? I know it should be between 1.008-1.018

You could remove some of the water and add some RO back, should drop the SG. I wouldn’t be too worried though, they’re pretty tough

Did you get more from gotshrimp? What was your experience? I am considering buying from them.
