    From the screen looks red. till now 2 say red 1 says black.

    Saved your picture to my computer. Open up with photoshop. did some color sampling for the shrimps as follow:

    Left shrimp:
    Red range - #ECA9B2,#F7A2A7,#E28F97,#F5AAA7

    Center shrimp:
    Brown range - #844C4D,#975533,#CE8E4E,#82413B

    Both shrimp color falls under the same red spectrum.

    I go for red

    Not red. It's brown, those CRS with more white hardly can get deep black, usually is varitaion of this color, reddish brown.

    Blue Diamond Shrimp? That will be very interesting. Maybe you will show us one day.
    By the way, how we grade this type of shrimp?
