You'd need a simple larval rearing tank (a small tank with an airline), some feeders for the larvae (I'd need to look at the links on my computer since I don't have them on my phone to see what pistol shrimp take, but typically the feeders used are copepods, Artemia [Brine Shrimp], and/or rotifers), and some phytoplankton to culture the feeders.Love the berries shrimp! Not sure if any babies can survive and grow up in tanks
Depending on specific circumstances, you may need a heater, lights, and/or specific things (like specific substrates, critters, or algae) to trigger settlement.Here's my advice for this - a quick summary, then the more detailed stuff:
-Setup a little, simple tank.
(The larval rearing tank).
-Add the larvae.
-Add the larval food and enough phytoplankton to tint the water green.
(The phytoplankton helps dim the lighting so it's not too bright for sensitive larvae, it makes it easier for the larvae to see the feeders, and it gutloads the feeders so they're more nutritious when eaten).
-Adjust feeding as needed as the larvae grow; you typically should start feeding regular fish food in addition to the larval food around settlement.
