So I went shopping at a recently discovered local fish store (one that I adore because there tanks are well maintained and the employees know what they are talking about).
I was talking to the owner and, in an odd attempt at what I think was flirting, he talked me into getting some more shrimp and then gave some to me for free. Ghost shrimp, so they would have been cheap anyway, but it was a nice gesture.
Well, one of them had green spots on her insides. I figured out these were eggs and set her up in her own tank so if they hatched the filter wouldn't eat the babies (assuming the betta didn't...).
They hatched today.
What on earth am I supposed to do with a bunch of floating baby ghost shrimp? The largest is almost 2 mm long. They just sort of float around...someone with experience? help?
