Thats what it sounds like to me. I have little red shrimp, and 'normal' clear-ish shrimp in my overflow and around my rocks. I was always told they were probably mysis.

I'm thinking you had a nice hatch of the grand slam breakfast for reef critters

I have the same thing... I have deducted from threads, pictures and books.... that they are in-fact mysis. I thought at first that they were baby cleaners since they always have eggs on them... but they never seem to get bigger. So mysis it is.
