Congrats, at first I though you were solo mining until I read the full post. So nothing happen and you should continue to mine in the pool.
Play the mining lottery everyone!
Congrats, if only you had been solo mining..
At some point these low hash rate devices really work well in the margins of any pool (eventually rounding errors will mean zero payout), and you're better off with the solo mine 
Still, congrats! 
Still, congrats! At some point, it will be not profitable to run those those low hashrate (low efficiency) miners, no matter you are pool mining or solo mining, unless you have free electricity.
If BTC price doesn't rise then that some point will be coming soon

Dear fellow miners,
That in and of itself is not a big deal. What is rather cool however, is that I'm mining with a single Block Erupter that I bought on eBay for $300. My hash rate hovers around 38 Gh/s. That means of the current Total Hash Rate of 55,000 TH/s or so, I represent a scant 0.069091%. I didn't just find a block, I crushed it with a share value of 15.6G. Was I solo mining? Hell no. I'm contributing a minuscule amount of work to the Eligius pool. Nevertheless, there is my block. Height 298,562. See? Lightning can and does strike. If any of you feel bad about the fact that earned +0.00016263 BTC instead of 25 BTC for my efforts, my address is 19cK8nHieqXxZbWoYFSdSgm2Q3Cb5CEPN6 Donations welcome!!
Happy Mining!,
Tony
