So guys, is there a way to know that these have been fired ? certainly the sonar man said nothing, unlike with DC's and "wasserbomb".

Yes they are horrible weapons. It gets even worse if they are launched in shallow water since you get the blasts from the ones hitting the seafloor. Tried to pass Dover-Calais in 1944.... "Geronimooooo  ..... 
EVEN the PT-boats got them in -44. Although they need a direct hit in deep water to damage you. Watched for fun once how I passed between two of these buggers. Also for DD:s expect a DC attack 10 seconds after the Hedgehogs as well.
