I've been checking out some of the photos on the user gallery and saw this delightful pic:

Now that's a fine looking CRS but it's almost fully red. :shock: How would someone tell the difference between a very red CRS and a RCS?

The crystal reds that are almost all red have different red from the red cherries. It's a completely different color. Plus, they usually have a little bit of white or clear stripes on their bodies. The crystal reds also don't have a line going down their backs as some red cherries, too. Finally, if you have a trained eye, you can just see the differences in body shape between the red cherries and the all red crystal reds.
