What kind of CRS is this?

Hi:

I only have only Crystal Red Shrimps.

One of the babies is a Red/White shrimp.

I guess one of my CRS have this gene.

But what type of shrimp is this?

Thanks

Wayne.

It looks more like a Wine Red or Ruby Red (which is a common genetic mutation from Taiwan Bee stock), Wayne.

It looks quite nice. I wish I have more than one. The ruby red color is shiny and solid.

It does look like this shrimp: Black King Kong, Panda, Wine Red, Red Ruby Shrimp

Hi Stuart:

Strange, in my tank all I have is CRS and Snow white.

I wish I know her parents are. She looks amazing.

She actually looks like these guys.

If you have "snow white" or "gold bees", they have "Taiwan Bee" genes. Therefore you would get the "Red Ruby" and "Wine Red" traits. They are a mutation and hopefully the parents will throw off some more shrimplets with similar characteristics. Consider yourself lucky !

Hi Stuart:

That is useful/good information.

I cross my fingers and hope it will happen again.

Here is another picture of the one and only I have again taken 2 days after moving to the 29g tank. I was worried she will will not do well in the transfer of new environment.
