Oh nice, they look like Blue Bees in size and body shape, but different color pattern.

Sorry, they are not - a little thinner and smaller than CB shrimp. Besides, not so easy to keep, and only few people have success with breeding them. Mine dropped many eggs while being berried and carried the eggs more than 40 days, as I have monitored more than once. So, one will not have big offspring rates. Keepers have not found a golden rule for them yet, some keep them very soft, others harder - but even in Vietnam where this shrimp is now well-known, they do not know how to breed them with high and constant survival rates.
