Hello new to reefing. Someone. Currently had babies in my saltwater tank. Current inhabitants are a pair of clownfish and 5 red legged hermit crabs. Can some someone help me identify whose babies here are!? Please and tank you

How in the world did I end up with mysis shrimp babies ? The only mysis shrimp that go in my tank are the frozen ones.

I guess some of them came back to life when put into water! Life is amazing...

Be careful to note that mysiid shrimp are saltwater and the frozen mysis shrimp you feed are freshwater. I'd imagine some fry came in as a hitchhiker or something. They didn't come from frozen freshwater mysis shrimp.
