Cleaner Shrimp With Eggs

[umluis]

My Cleaner Shrimps have already bred twice and, of course, all eggs have hatched in the middle of the night - - only to be eaten by my Anthias and Clowns.

I'd like to catch her, but wouldn't know what to do from there.

I have a 15 gallon nano tank, that's much more well-established than the 90g she is currently in. But, I'm afraid the stress of moving her will be too much for the eggs and most will be lost?? OR, all the little shrimps will get sucked into the filter.

Is there any containment that I can hang on the inside of the main tank that will protect the fry from everyone/thing else?

Does anyone have hints/tricks on catching my prego-shrimp?

I'd love to raise the shrimp and sell them on ebay!

HELP!

Thanks!
