    The easiest way to tell if they are baby shrimp is to see if they are there tomorrow. If they are, they aren't baby shrimp. If they are gone, they were indeed shrimp larvae.

    if there there tommorrow? im sure they will be.there is my sump and there is no way for them to get pumped back in the tank because the is a foam block blocking them from the main area where the return pump and skimmer is.
