Where a Snowflake carries heavy, snow-like spots across its belly, a Snowfall carries a finer scatter — small “spray spots” — over a dark body. The deep base gives the white pattern its contrast; what develops with age is the sharpness and tone of the spotting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the photo.\u003c\/strong\u003e The pictured shrimp represents the grade target.
