It's amano shrimp, some folks reported amamo with orange-ish color at mature age.
got them checked by a known aquarist.. not amano ....amano need brackish water to lay eggs
he could not identify them either

I was thinking amano from the first pics but yeah if you raised the larvae in freshwater they are not amano. How big are they? Size might help distinguish between species of Caridina and Neocaridina.

Like others have stated if you list a location of collection and size it might help
location : outskirts of mumbai
size: 2 to 3 cm
colour : changes to environment
recorded colour : blue,green,orange,transparent,white
feed on dead matter, some algae
prefer minimum light
found in clear running water with sand substratum
found under rocks and crevices
breeding took place completely in freshwater
50 shrimps became adult from one gravid female
... i hope this works for right now i have this much information
