Interested in keeping shrimp

I found some crystal red shrimp on CL and was wondering if this was a decent price and if they are easy to care for

If you've never kept Shrimp, I would start with Red Cherry Shrimp ( RCS) and learn on them.
CRS are somewhat more fragile depending on the "grade". Mine need very stable parameters and prefer a clean planted tank.

CRS should be in a Shrimp only tank with Otos as the only fish for best results.

I'm on my iPhone so I did not see a link to an ad or the prices.
