get a small tank or container like 1g and keep the little guys in there for a couple days so they have food close by and use a air stone
this is just a guess on what to do i have seen it some where used for breeding shrimp

I searched around a little and it seems like there is very little information on them. So be a self made marine biologist and observe the fish and see what you can do!

I am sure it is!!! Take the lead from them and watch for the things that could hurt them, like pumps, powerheads etc. Food is really important and you need to get your hands on some rotifers asap.
