I have those.
I just had 3 females release their eggs and there are shrimplets around the tank,
I expect to have some for sale in a couple of months

Re: rare shrimp?

They're actually kinda sensitive to water conditions. More so than regular tigers. The pH in my tank is adjusted down to 6.5.
I'm not sure if you already keep similar shrimp, because i wouldn't recommend these as "first shrimp".
Chances are if you can keep regular tigers or CRS, it's not too much difficult to keep these.

Re: rare shrimp?

They are called "orange eye blue tigers"
It's a recessive mutation of the normal tiger shrimp.
