About Ebiten Pure Red Line

Ebiten Pure Red Line CRS is the result of several generations' selective breeding. The chosen ones are not only pretty, but also bigger. I have been keeping those Ebiten Shrimp for about a month. The result is significant. They grow faster and bigger than other crystal red shrimp. The one shown in the picture is about 3/4 inch, close to 1 inch. This is the first time she gets berried, I estimate there could be around 50 eggs. Her capability is close to cherry shrimp, which never happen to my other CRS. If the parent shrimps are big, future baby shrimplets are more likely to be big in size, and in a healthy condition. Being pretty is just one point of pure line, what's more important is the healthy gene.
