Red nose shrimp..

[jack-rythm]

Been able to find someone selling Red Nose Shrimp.. they look very unusual and pretty cool.. but cant seem to get any info from the seller.. does anyone know anything about these? I read they live in brackish water but can be acclimatised to suit tropical set ups.. whats the basics of keeping this shrimp? what the difficulty in relation to other shrimp. Assuming that you have to acclimatise them would I be right in thinking that they are quite fragile in fresh water?

last time i looked, red nosed (i think) is a brackish job, i will recheck. EDIT ... yep. they will survive for a couple of months and then die in fresh.
