the shrimp will eat it's shell sometimes. but not all the time. if after a few hours or 1 day, remove it. it doesn't do any harm to leave it in there.

individual preference. i just normally leave it down there.

and dose iodine. while molting and without enough iodine, they can die.

If a man could beat his own fantasy. Then to only breed in captivity. Then its pointless.

Genesis 1:20

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that has life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth. And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

I usually leave it in the tank for the scavengers to feast on. Takes 1-2 days.
