    hi guys, need you crs experts to help me grade 2 piece of my newly bought Black diamond shrimps..
    BDS 1
    this guy looks kinda reddish brown rather den black. could it be a mixture of CRS and BDS? but this guy white is thicker den the other guy.

    another pic of the same BDS 1

    BDS 2
    this guy is black. but white is not as thick as the 1st one.

    anyway, i bought it at a lfs where they house their CRS in 1 tank without grading them.. so i just take which ever has the thicker white and pay
    thanks in advance.

    First 2 I would say grade B. Third piece, grade C.
    God will make a way, where there seems to be no way

    That is an expensive way to test water. 2 grade C CRS is the same price as 10 cherry shrimps.

    If you are looking for cherries, do try Clementi Block 328. I was just there to buy Seachem Prime. I took a look at their cherry shrimps and there were 3 females heavily pregnant. So, I bought it. I did see other bags with pregnant cherry shrimps as well.

    doubleace, bee shrimps will cross breed with CRS/BDS. I would suggest you do more research so that your foray would be more successful. There are quite a number of CRS/BDS existing discussions in the forum.

    Also, please kindly refrain from using SMS type language. It can sometimes be difficult to read, more so for other foreign members whose first language isn't English. Thanks.
