I know, I know, I shouldn't pick up things I've never heard of before, but we all succumb to the urge now and again.

I went to a LFS and saw a "purple-legged shrimp" that was quite attractive, with a very dull body that looked like a stone and bright purple legs and tail.

After checking online I realize my shrimp is a rare Saron species, Saron Rectirostris. I cannot find any information on the shrimp in English, but I know Saron/Monkey shrimps aren't exactly reef safe, so I'm wondering if anyone knows the disposition of this particular species.
