On a Fire Red the red sits in the shell, so the shrimp looks painted; on a Bloody Mary it sits in the flesh under a clear shell, so the colour looks lit from inside. The line came out of Chocolate Neocaridina stock in Taiwan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOurs carries strong dark red genetics on top of that. As they mature, most settle to a solid crimson and some go past it to a deep maroon — the whole colony reads darker than a standard cherry shrimp can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the photo.\u003c\/strong\u003e The shrimp pictured is one of the best-looking adults from the batch. Juveniles arrive lighter; the red deepens with each moult. Around 95% of the juveniles we ship colour up to that solid, high-grade standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003clabel class=\"sz-acc__row\"\u003e\u003cinput type=\"radio\" name=\"sz-acc-bloody-mary\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eColour \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/label\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"sz-acc__panel\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat to expect as they grow:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe 95% standard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Over 95% of the juveniles from this listing colour up fully solid and meet what other sellers call high grade.
