Icon14 Mysterious Baby Shrimp

Ok, I have only one Scarlet Skunk Shrimp in my tank at the time, and I noticed something very strange the other day. Their was this little creature, insect looking swimming around. It was hard to tell what it was, but then I noticed thay their are several, somewhere around like 10, in my tank. I got a good look at a couple of them, and I noticed that they strangely resemble my Cleaner Shrimp, and by resemblence, I mean they have a red stripe down their back, and 6 antenneas protruding from the head. I apologize for not having a photo, I will post one hopefully tomorrow, but is this possible for for my Cleaner to reproduce without a mate?
