Crystal Red Shrimp SS Grade

The SS grade Crystal Red Shrimp represents a meaningful step above base S grade in terms of color coverage and definition. Red bands are broader and more saturated, with improved white coverage creating sharper contrast. These Caridina cantonensis variants require the same soft, acidic, low-TDS parameters as all Crystal Reds but reward the effort with noticeably more striking visual impact. They graze continuously on biofilm and benefit from a tank rich in mosses and fine-leaf plants. Stable parameters are paramount — even slight fluctuations in TDS or pH can trigger molting problems or color fade. A buffering substrate paired with RO water is strongly recommended.
