Coral Banded Shrimp - pregnant???

[Blue_dragon_192]

I just bought a coral banded shrimp from my LFS. When I got home and looked closely at the shrimp. I saw what looked like a belly full of eggs. I will post a picture later. My question are:
Are these eggs already fertilized?
If they are, will the mother shrimp eat the new ones'?
If they hatch and live, what am I going to do with a bunch of baby shrimp in my 35 gal tank????
Any additional info would be great.
BTW, I did take a long time to acclimate her to the tank...about 2 hours.

I wouldn't fret too much about the eggs. Fertilized or not, the shrimp will release them and the eggs or fry will be consumed by the animals in your tank. The only way the babies can be raised to adulthood is by removing them from the tank and committing a lot of time and energy to their feeding and care.

My pair of Red Skunk Cleaners feed my tank with larvae/fry once a month and my corals and fish are very fat and happy. Pure protein!

Same here Craig. Wonderful natural food.
