Taiwan Fire Red Shrimp
Taiwan Fire Red Shrimp, Neocaridina Heteropoda var Red, is top of the line solid red morph originating from Cherry Red Shrimp. They are a higher grade above Sakura Red and Cherry Reds. Females will get redder with each successive molt. Even males have a chance of getting really red coloration, but most will not. They are awesome and really stand out in a tank even across the room.
I obtained this particular strain from a breeder who imported directly from a great source in Taiwan. This strain breeds very true and needs little culling. Compared to Cherries, this strain of Fire Reds are much smaller and reach only about 75% the size of a Cherry.
