    Re: Going rate

    probably have to sell your soul to get the one at the bottom right(big picture). that one seems to be a pure red line.

    the rest looks like have golden genes or poor colouration.

    The right bottom 2 are same shrimp. Unlikely is Pure red line, it does not has any tint of red at the legs.

    Re: Going rate

    Seems like we can't do much with a person's soul leh... unlike those imps (chinese term 'small ghost'). Anything else to offer?

    I hv not had a single flower or crown head CRS till date. Currently, I am trying to see if I can seperate my CRS into "Red Line" and "Golden Genes". I hope to get full Red Legs CRS, with thick white and thick red, while golden genes may give me nice patterns just for e fun out of it.

    The bottom right piece (displayed above) has very nice white and red. I guess it would have cost hundreds. Couple odd years ago, those pieces would likely have cost above $1k.

    Re: Going rate

    Finally I see some numbers. Hence, S$1k per piece is the bench mark

    It depends where it is sold. Shrimp specialty shop price could be 3 times the others

    Re: Going rate

    When I mentioned $1k or more, it was refering to 2 years or longer ago. Based on current Singapore market value, it should be much lower than it was 2 years ago. I have no idea of the price tag.

    Prices of crystal red shrimps are considered high compared to our friends in taiwan. Not too sure about japan though.

    Here are some pics from my previous post.

    Taipei - Meng Quan Tong Lu



    Crown Mosuras mixed in a tank of crystal red shrimps with all grades going for 100NT only, approximate $5 each for all grades.

    Okay. I change my mind now. I'm willing to exchange my soul for a pair of the pure red line CRS instead. More worth it. I just started for around 4 months and is now already gone bonkers. Just love the colours. NingNing, i rather be Saline's slave then yours. At least i will gets to learn more things from an expert.

    -Enjoy the weekend-

    eviltrain... -.-" you win. haha..

    you started 4 months ago and are crazy?

    HAHA you so easy crazy? but how come you seem to keep collecting tanks?

    anyway... not to OT. Hongkong's crs are cheap. but you have to risk them dying if not packed properly on the way back.

    don't forget, you cannot hand carry liquids back.
