Sorry for the late reply, has been very busy.

Found this "extreme" King kong baby today:


It is a little more extreme as it has 1 white dot less.

what shrimps are those? why blue color one? BDS color fade?

The red ones are known as wine red, red ruby and can be many names.. For black, those with bar white are known as panda and those with less white are known as king kong and ..... You can considered them as BDS with intense (pure) black and intense (pure) white.

I would prefer shrimp 2.Shrimp 1 look more like CRS though.

[MrSpock]

wow... at the site... these black ones going for bids of Y200,000!!! That's like SG$3000!!

for a shrimp! My goodness!

Last time I saw at NA a single piece of Hinomaru cost $1500 each. Now for the same kind of grade its about a fraction of the cost.

That was in 2006? Can vaguely remember.

Therefore......Lets wait approximately 2-3 years for it to become more affordable.

[silane]

Yeah, you should wait....

For now not much chance of such shrimps ended in Singapore, foreign countries like Japan are grabbing them up even at size of 0.5cm. Lower spending countries hobbyists like Thailand and Indonesia are coming to Singapore to get from me. Current situation for such shrimps is.... no distance barrier... who can afford will sell to who. It is not like before, has to price drop to attract locals.

As long as Japan and some Europe countries are willing to pay and there is some technically different in breeding between hino and such shrimps, the price will be stay for a while.

WR B (most of the surface is red, with small patches of white)

I prefer this one..

[silane]

It has been a while that the price of such shrimp has determined the general preference.



WR A (has large white bars on red)



WR B (most of the surface is red, with small patches of white)


WR A is more expensive then WR B. Breeders prefer to let go WR B then WR A. Surprised?? WR B is too much like a CRS why is it more wanted? Now the breeders want to make hino-wine red. That is one CRS has hino pattern. This type:



This piece has red legs, which are in trend, of Pure red line leg color, and has thick white. Hmmm and also blood red... the red is darker then usual wine red. Compare the reddness of those WR in the background. Thus this pic, with its type of unusual dark red, is called Bloody Red among breeders.

So the most wanted Wine Red is those with lot of white and little red. And those with least white are in the cheapest price range.

[Crfan]

The last picture of the Bloody Red hino is amazing, in that in manages to inherit the desirable qualities of the pure red line and yet darkens the red even more. Does the colouration of the offspring of this line vary or will it be the same?

[silane]

Some of the offsprings of such pieces will look like this color, some will be normal wine, some can be king kong. You can see it inherited king kong color too.

This piece has both wine red and king kong genes.

The genetics of this series of shrimps is getting very interesting and one day, the way we breed shrimps will be like guppy.

Silane,
Are those wine red in Pattern B the cheapest? How about king kong and panda? Which type is more wanted?

[jojoe]

In Taiwan Pattern B was selling TWD3500, Black King Kong TWD6500.
Is up to individual of liking the pattern.

Now Japan crazy for Black king kong..

Silane,
Are those wine red in Pattern B the cheapest? How about king kong and panda? Which type is more wanted?

[silane]

Actually TWD3500 ($160) for pattern B Wine Red is too much to pay. In local, $120 can get liao.

For king kong, that day, I just quoted someone 5 for $1000, but since he is a student, I advised him not to buy.

[marle]

Anyway, I remember an online lfs website some months back and some local hobbyists selling Wine Red shirmps for a few times the amount quoted. Now, it has fallen quite a few fold to $120! Yeah! More affordable for people like me.

I am so excited! The price has fallen quite dramatically in just a matter of months! This is good good news for us invertebrate lovers with not so deep pockets!
