My Sexy shrimp just gave birth but I wasn't ready

[Levinson]

Got another hatch just now. This is 5th (that I know of).
At around 11:50pm, I noticed some baby shrimps in the tank. At first, I thought my baby shrimps escaped the rearing tank bcuz it was a bit early for birth (it was normally 12pm~1: 30am) but there were too many it had to be another birth. I collected as many as I could with a turkey baster and moved them to the rearing tank but I only managed to collect maybe around 15~20. Many were already lost.

After many many failed attempts, I have confirmed ONE sexy shrimp (out of many hundreds that perished) had made it through the metamorphosis this morning. This is my first.
Again, I wasn't ready and I don't have a grow-out box for it so it's still in the kreisel tank for now. I'll try to make a breeder box for it soon.

There were some successes but I still couldn't figure it out.
