After 3 hours, I realised many tiny similar organisms moving in the water and I turned off the filter immediately. Each of them look like a dot with a tail attached. I think those are the shrimps' babies.

If they are tiny free-swimming larvae then green-water/infusoria are a 
good first food.  When they are larger they will settle to the bottom 
and will be able to eat bits of food off of the tank floor.  Having a 
good bit of java moss in the tank can help by providing browsing areas.

Later,
