The same foods as the adults will serve the babies. I have not had baby survival in other than isolation tanks, but large clumps of Java Moss would likely help.

I used to havee a preggy ghost shrimp in a 10 gal I had. They should be fine unless you have some bottom feeder fish. They will eat what they can find off the bottom, it's not necessary to go out of your way to give them extra food. But plenty of cover as RTR said will help, but fish love them! Lol.
