Appearance / taxonomic evidence

Dark red Crystal Red selection offered by Galactic Shrimps in Poland.

Wild distribution or documented breeder region

Poland; trade line

Lineage and species identification

The 'Extreme' grade indicates commercial selection within bee-style red/white phenotypes; it does not prove one worldwide founder or a discrete allele.

Breeding, husbandry and authentication

For scientific taxa, do not assume that commercial Cherry, Bee, Tiger or Boa water chemistry or mating patterns apply. Confirm habitat and reproductive mode with primary literature and specimen-based identification. For captive trade strains, request breeder-specific generations, sexed parents, stable water logs and records of culls and re-selection. Avoid wild collection and release of nonnative shrimp.
