You won't find any of these for $10 any time soon:icon_lol: .
These are the highest known grade of "CRS" at the moment as far as the past grading system has gone. The ones he seems to be selling are a poor example of that grade.
Ryan has got some and so does Pedro I believe. No idea how much they paid its not my buisnes but I sure hope it wasn't that high. The market is really soft in Japan and some people are trying to get them over here and make a huge profit, at one point it seemed someone many of you probably recognize was trying that, but he has stopped now from what he's said and is only breeding his own because it was hard to ensure top quality.
So no they're not cheap at all, go check out shrimpnow.com and look at some of them.
roud: People do pay money for quality shrimp thats for sure. The actual grade is SSS and that one pictured is probably a low SSS because of the transparencies but it was also probably bred for the golden crs status opposed to the white which was more sought after last I'd checked.-Andrew
hehe, that is funny. who knows, maybe there is someone out there that does not know any better and will buy it.
They are not worth $1K, more like $150 each. They are beautiful shrimp, my favorite. If they were worth $1K then I would have a very expensive 10g tank
i dont know when I would ever have these for sale so I cannot even say what I would possibly sell them for. I must say though, they really are beautiful and unlike any shrimp you have seen before. Pictures do not do them justice. I wish I still had my macro lens because I would take some awesome pictures of them.

They are not the considered the highest grade of shrimp. They are not the hardest to get gene wise. They simply caused by another recessive trait. The highest grades of shrimp are the crystals that actually have a bit of red but are almost all white.You won't find any of these for $10 any time soon:icon_lol: .
