    Move her/them to a tank without fish and other shrimp species.
    Cover your filter/power head intake with a sponge or gauze so the shrimplets don't get sucked in. Don't vacuum your gravel.

    Aside from that I don't think you need to do anything special.

    leave them alone, they will be fine..Just provide moss for the shrimplets to hide.. it will higher their chance of surviving and the shrimplets will get their food from the moss, think the food they collect its called micro???

    Removing the fish rather than the berried CRS/cherry would be a better choice.
    Berried CRS/Cherry have lower tolerance to different water condition.
    Adding lotsa mosses helps!

    Good call! get those pesky fish outta there! and if you have other types of shrimp might want to get them their own tank for the time being too.
