Yes they are currently in a species only 5g and are getting ready to be upgraded to a 20L... Since these shrimp sell, on the low end, for around $10 each and upwards of $2000 each on the high end it makes me very very happy.

Honestly I had no idea I had ANY until this guy showed up with 3 of his buddies... They are so small and are in a heavily planted tank I just don't know... Like right this moment I can not find any of them, but there are a lot of plants where they could be hiding.

oops, sorry. I got my C's and R's mixed up - lol. I re-read the post about them costing so much and thought whoa, that's A LOT of money to pay for Red Cherry Shrimps. As you can see I am VERY new to shrimps - lol.
Let's try this again.....Congrats on your CRYSTAL RED Shrimps.

BTW, I just saw my RED CHERRY Shrimps mating so maybe we'll have a few little Red Cherries running around our tank soon.
