Cinetorhynchus hendersoni (Kemp 1925) is a kind of ornamental shrimps in the special ecological status which may coexist with other ornamental creatures. For the development of artificial culture techniques of C. hendersoni, the effects of food, starvation, salinities and temperatures on growth and survival rate were investigated. Better survival rate and growth were obtained under a feeding scheme with the nauplii of Artemia at 1/ml from newly hatched to the 5th stage zoea. Survival rate and growth decreased as larvae were not fed on the first day post-hatch. The growth was better in which were raised at 24, 29, 34 and 39 psu, but survival rate was better at 34 psu. Better survival rate of the dancing shrimp was raised between 24 ~ 30℃, and better growth was obtained at 30 and 33℃. Overall, better survival rate and growth would be obtained under raising at 30℃, 34 psu, and feeding with the nauplii of Artemia at 1/ml starting from the first day after hatching.
