Other than blue tigers and blue pearl shrimp are their any other blue shrimp that are somewhat common in the US?
I am looking for something that is the darker blue like the blue tiger.

Any suggestions for shrimp and a little info about them would be great
 
I personally think that for DARKER blue, you're not going to really find anything else other than dark blue tigers. Most other blue shrimps are still very expensive and not readily available in the US, as most of them are also lighter and brighter in the blue department.
 
I think there is a shrimp called blueberry shrimp. They're a pretty dark blue and pretty common but not sure if they all stay that dark blue or get light.
 
Blueberries are a Neocaridiana Breed so they are like Red cherrys of course you're going to get dark blue, but you'll also get light colored ones, and they fade depending on their environment.
 
I already have neo yellows but when i say dark blue I mean just not a super clear or barely visible blue. Like if you look at a shrimp in the back of the tank it is clearly blue. From what I understand the most expensive oebt are super dark - almost black which is not what I am looking for. I guess I mean a blue that "pops".
