Has anyone sucessfully raised peperment shrimp?

[SpiderCrab2]

I have a pregnant pepperment shrimp and was wondering if it was worth trying to get her to successfully hatch her eggs. Maybe I should seperate her???

it can be doneit just takes quite a bit of work, you would have to setup a seperate tank to house the larvae feed them live phyto etc etc.
here is a link to a good article on raising them
