    i saw a number of baby shrimps in my filter two days ago and i took them out with the water and transfered them to another tank. now my question is, do they need special attention? can i change the water of the tank?
    ( the tank is super small, not even a litre) will neon tetra eat them up if i put them into my main tank? how long till they grow to adult size?

    just put an airstone to provide aeration and also moss.
    no need to change water, just top up when necessary.
    pls also leave the tank in a shaded place to keep temp low.
    you can feed with algae wafer or crushed flakes.
    other than that, your shrimps should be fine.

    once they get bigger, you can carefully transfer to main tank and check for anymore babies in the filter
