Taiwan Fire Red and Shrimplets

[jamesneo]

is Fire Red available in local LFS?

Yes. But have to judge yourself. It written as Fire Red on the bag. Place side by side with Sakura and Cherry.
Make a comparison between these bags and the shrimps are about the "same" color, most probably stress. Most LFS don't know what they are selling

Handcarry from a friend who visited Taiwan lately. He bought 50pcs.
I took 15pcs from him.

Colour very intense... Look like the cooked lobster!
Is the water condition same as cherry/ sakura?

Same condition, All three are family.

For those hoping to buy TW FR in LFS. As mentioned somewhere earlier, when you sees TW FR in LFS, be prepared not all are real FR. Just like some so called Sakuras in LFS, they are just redder cherries but not Sakura standard.

There are also other shrimps being passed off as higher grades in LFS. One needs to know what they are buying else there's a high chance of getting fakes or lower quality shrimps.

Good luck
