Pros: they eat algae. They're red. They're cute as a bug.

Cons: they're freakin' tiny! They're so intolerant of ammonia 
that if you have algae from ammonia they'll just die. 

If you want a tankful of small neat shrimp these are probably the ones
you want. If you want them to eat algae, get an otoconclus.
