luminous red shrimp?

[0live]

Does anyone know what luminous red shrimp are? and why they are different than cherry red shrimp?

I hate common names, but the LFS has both..

is there a difference, or was something lost in translation?

no, it was part of a shipment that just came in

they were juvies, small, red..

once my camera gets back from scotland, I'll go back and try to take some photos.
my camera is on vacation w/o me
