If you’re passionate about Crystal Red Shrimp (CRS) like us then you know all about banding and how the clearer the white banding is on the shrimp, and the fuller it is, the higher grade your CRS. Genetics play an important role within CRS and the better genes the parents have the higher the chance of having CRS with quality banding. But if your CRS doesn’t look quite as good as you hoped it to, is there anything that can be done?
You can help those ‘genes’ by providing an excellent diet in particular Genchem White Pellet which is a shrimp specific food designed for improving banding. We’ve been using this food for about 2 weeks now and have been very pleased with improvements so far. The white banding on our CRS is clearly more defined and it seems thicker and fuller. The CRS take readily to it as well, almost as if they know it’s going to improve their colour 🙂
Like all Genchem products they have more than one function and in this case by feeding Genchem White Pellet, it will help improve moulting.So this double fold effect is a win win. Your shrimps will improve in colour and the moulting is easier.
I’ve used this product a while back and I had some grade A shrimp – banding was OK but you know could improve. I used White Pellet and after about 1 week I already seen improvement.
Well worth it in my opinion.
Glad you like it Steph and thanks for the comments 🙂
I was a little skeptical at first but It works!
Here is the proof, one of my crystals showing off it’s banding.

Nice pictures James. They’re looking great.
Any signs of them carrying any young yet?
Not yet, but I have my fingers crossed.
That bee shrimp beauty I got from you is looking even more incredible now. A little on the aloof side but it comes out now and again 🙂
Ha. Typical woman 🙂
She was a corker wasn’t she.
