I know
RCS and CRS are different, but, that is about the percntage of my offspring of my Really Red RCS.

That is Alot of Shrimp to sort out.

But, It is worth it when you find the really nice ones.

The breeder that I receive my S grade CRS or Black Bee shrimp from Hong Kong has 4 white bands. Here is a picture of a S grade CRS:

However, I have also seen only 3-banded "S grade" CRS/Black Bee shrimps from other breeders in Hong Kong and in Taiwan though like you have stated Pedro.

Nice shrimps,
but I don't see "high grade". most of CRS are A some B, S has 4 bands, so none seen

One of Diamons is also nice, but bestly A grade.
S and above have to have solid Red/white/black.

But as I said nice shrimps, I haven't better.

I see some S around there in some of my pictures with some tiger tooth and v-bands. Pictures are not the best, but I can say the white and red are thick and no gaps or transparencies and they are 4-band shrimp.

Grade varies by country in some cases. At least that has been my experience.

Also, I have seen that females tend to loose some color when they carry eggs.

Or, does it vary ?
