That would be cool. I have seen plenty of small mysis resembling shrimp in a fuge before.
They're not some sort of pod are they?

Sounds like pods to me...
When my cleaner shrimp spawned the larva were extremely small. They do not look at all like shrimp, more like little tiny bugs. I'm not sure about Peps but would imagine they are similar.

I've seen that happen with pods too. I'm just sayin'...
If it is the Peppermint shrimps, they are not impossible to raise but are definetly not easy! Good luck!
