You need to add iodine to the tank. Get the kind sold for sal****er tanks. I
use Kent Marine Iodine. For a tank 55 gallons or less, add one drop with each
water change. Or just add a drop whenever you see them starting to turn
opaque.

That's really the only trick to keeping ghost shrimp. They will readily breed
in the tank, even, as long as they get iodine.
