Default Sexy Shrimp: How High Is High No3?

All the info I've been able to find about Sexy Shrimp is that they do not tollerate high NO3 levels. My question is "How high is high?" for these shrimps?

I have a little 10x10x10" invert tank that seems to be doing well so far. It has only one little frogspawn. Its pretty happy and it has grown up a bit from when I first got it. I'm feeding it weekly with a little chunk of shrimp on Thursdays followed with a water change on Saturday. NO3 levels are 20ppm just before I do my water change which resets it down to about 5 or 10 ppm or so (I'm not good at reading the colours).

Are those safe levels for sexy shrimp? If no, how high is still safe for them?

Thanks!
