I purchase them as "feeder shrimp" at the aquarium store at the cost of 10 for
$1.25 (American).  I can place a few egg-laden females in a 10g tank with
plenty of nitrogen (5-10 ppm) and 24h lighting and I'll get green water and
baby shrimp.  I recommend that you remove the adults once they shed their skin
and add ramshorn snails to the tank to keep the algae off the glass.
