    What a beauty! Thanks for sharing. It has to be a Cherry shrimp since that is the title of his post.

    Btw, what is the difference between a Cherry and a Sakura shrimp? Sorry but I was out of the country for more than a year and only recently heard of Sakura shrimps. Thanks.

    Didn't know cherry can get that intense colouration. Do the shrimplets grow to such intensity too?

    from my limited knowledge of shrimp, the redness of cherry shrimp is made up of the many red spots similar to the shrimplets you see in the foreground, and the red looks like it's under the shell, whereas for sakura shrimp, the red looks painted on over the shell, and is a solid colour instead of many red spots, similar to the large red shrimp that is the focus of the picture

    Essentially they are the same thing arent they?
    Sakura is just a name given to the higher grades with better colour.

    they don't really from same grade , as the brightness and reddness of sakura totally different from cherry, even most red cherry are like red purple colour but dull in colour.

    Well...Nice power shrimp.

    I doubt it will be appropriate to name this guy as a cherry shrimp.

    It should be called- "super red sakura".

    From my colony of sakuras, I do have few pieces of this quantity but probably less than a handful of them.

    Well, bro Fei Mao you are lucky to have picked up this supreme piece.

    Nice deep red unlike the cherries i have, does sakura breed true or there's grading system of coloration like CRS?

    Got the answer on the other thread
