    thanks avex.... i also suspect it to be bumble bee...
    anyway i told the owner that i will show him picture of cbs and crs grading...
    imagine she told me that sakura pattern on crs is on the tail... most crs she selling is grade A, s and SS. i told her that grading is not based on the tail but on the pattern.

    hopefully she will let me have some more of those bee and blackeye blue tiger...


    look like she is being conned by the supplier as she say its her first time dealing with shrimp....
