most probably true, but can't be sure until those shrimp taxonomy expert confirm it. Problem with LFS is they never include the scientific name![]()

Though some LFS sold the shrimp labelled as Sakura, however it look like normal cherries to me, may be due to water condition. But i do come across some pictures post by other, sakura seem to be completely red, look like top grade cherries.
cheers
sakura = deep red colouration, red cover full body, male and female both have the same redness.
cherry = deep red colouration only for big female, red does not cover full body, male is pale while female is redder.
Actually, I believe they are same species. Some of my cherries even redder than sakura I put in. now I can't tell which is which also.
thank for the replies.
