Any issue with multiple pregnant shrimps?

Hi people of reddit,

Sorry for the shitty pictures.

I've setup this tank about 3 months ago, it's been pretty low maintenance with a nice green growth from the beginning.

About two weeks ago I noticed that one shrimp had moved her eggs beneath her belly, and I said cool! I'm gonna be a dad!

Problem is, 3 days ago I found another one and today another one again!

Now I'm starting to panicking a little, I knew the population would've exploded, but not so fast all together.

So, newbie question. Do I need to take particular precautions for the increasing population? the tank is 25L with 11 neocaridinas, so I know the water changes would become a bit more frequent.

Also, will they eventually plateau? Or do I need to remove them (I can setup a new tank, but I have the feeling in a year or two that my room would be an acquarium).

Thank you very much for the help!
