I honestly can't recall precisely what lighting they're using. I may stop by again soon, actually. I'll get back to you on this!

Well, I went down there today. From what I found out, they use two lights: One is a full spectrum UV (not a black light), and the other is a special light specifically for the coral, which may contribute to the coloring. Shrimp are somewhat transparent, and when hit with any colored light they can look very dramatic.
The tank is definitely bathed in a light blue-ish tone, and if I recall, I also intentionally chose a white balance that brought out the blues further.
