About

Caridina cf. cantonensis 'Crystal Red S-Grade' has vivid red and white banding patterns graded from A to SSS by percentage of white coverage. S-grade specimens have approximately 50% white coverage with clean colour borders. Crystal Red shrimp require soft, acidic, mineral-poor water (total hardness 4–6 GH) and are significantly more demanding than Neocaridina shrimp. RO water with shrimp-specific remineraliser is recommended.
