Baby shrimp food?

I don't know if this is the right place to post...... but, my Skunk cleaner shrimp let loose with a bunch of larvae like always, this time I caught a handful of them and have them in my QT with an air line running. They have been in there for 2 days and are all still alive. I put some cyclopeeze in there with them but is there something else I should be feeding them right now? I tried searching the question but the server is too busy. I don't expect them to survive, but since they are all ways letting larvae fly I thought I would try to raise some.
Sorry for the long winded post, just curious.
Thanks,
Steve
 
feed them nori and some brine shrimp as well they will love it. You can also feed them Phyto as this seems to be one of the first foods they eat int he wild.
 
10-4 Julio,
I know for sure that they eat the peeze because the ones that were white are know red. I did put in some small pieces of Nori when I put the peeze in. I read up on how to grow phytoplankton and rotifers, so I think I will put together the Mad scientist set up and give it a whirl. While I'm waiting the 10-12 days can I buy some from a LFS?
Thanks for the reply,
Steve
 
Julio, here is a pic I got of a couple of them. Still going strong.
Notice the red bellies full of cyclopeeze.
