Just leave them in there as normal. they will go around the tank to look for food.

Bro, IMHO, if you want to keep shrimps, then sae and cardinal tetra are not suitable to mix with them, these fishes will eventually kill them, unless they have sufficient hidding place, then again, you won't be able to see them.

Also, how long you want to separate these poor shrimplets, you need to put soil, plant, and shrimp food, so that they can find food by themselves. Sorry to say that.

OMG...if you wanna keep shrimps, guess the only fish you can keep are ottos. Even a harmless looking guppy spells doom. Anyway, shrimps are so wonderful you don't actually need to have other fishes around!

True. I remembered i got 2 guppy fries in office shrimp tank, then cannot see shrimplets. Once removed, many starts to appear.

What we are trying to say is that fish usually prey on small shrimplets.
