It may take at least 3-4 months before they start breeding, potentially longer as some shrimp do take longer to mature and grow than others.

In other words, it takes time.

That said, if you're parameters aren't "right" for the shrimp, they may not breed at all, or they may breed but offspring might not survive.

If the tank is growing plenty of biofilm then they may not be interested in regular food for now. That's fine.
