    I was told that the males are less colourful than the females. And have transparent bodies. Maybe smaller in size too.
    The females have a yellowish kind of spot on her back behind the head. They are redder. And confirm female when they are carrying eggs.

    You only have 3 shrimps? Maybe quite hard to confirm if you got a pair to start the breeding.

    What are the chance? 1 - 0.5^3 - 0.5^3 = 0.75 i.e. 75% chance you got a working pair.

    Also - be patient before they become mature enough to have eggs.
