Pepermint Shrimp carrying eggs!!!What should I do?

So i got a pepermint the other week and it had what looked like tiny green eggs underside. Tonight I looked and the eggs have gotten huge and are transparent. Should I remove the shrimp to a small tank till the babies hatch? Will a royal gramma, coral banded shrimp or a Clown goby bother the babies? Any help on this topic would be awsome!!

Thanks
Eric

The baby shrimp will end up as coral/fish food. Unless you can obtain the food needed by the babies they don't have a chance anyway. The hardest part of rearing things like shrimp and even some fish is getting food small enough for them to eat. Skip
