Red Fancy Tiger SSS+ (Top Grade)

The Red Fancy Tiger shrimp is a captivating addition for shrimp enthusiasts. These unique creatures feature bold stripes and distinctive patterns that vary from one individual to another, making each one truly unique. Grading the Fancy Tigers is based on factors like shell thickness, color opacity, and pattern, with grades ranging from A to SSS, the highest. If a Fancy Tiger is predominantly white, it's called a White Dominant Fancy Tiger.

These shrimp result from a breeding mix of tiger shrimp and pure red lines, with breeders working to achieve the desired pattern. They offer a fascinating breeding project for hobbyists seeking to obtain the highest-grade Fancy Tigers. With care similar to other shrimp, keeping around 10 Fancy Tigers per gallon is ideal, and they are non-aggressive algae and biofilm eaters. However, they require remineralized RO water and should not be exposed to copper-containing fertilizers. The Red Fancy Tiger adds a unique and challenging aspect to shrimp keeping, offering various patterns and a striking red appearance.

SSS+ Red Fancy Tigers will have completely opaque shell with striking red and white tiger patterns from head to tail. The legs will have a unique 'spider' coloration. No detail is spared. These RFTs are simply the best of the best!
