The Crown Jewel of the Aquarium: Wine Red Crystal Shrimp with Pinto Gene

Short Description:
Behold the pinnacle of selective shrimp breeding. Our Wine Red Crystal Shrimp are not just another color variant; they are a masterpiece of genetics, combining the deep, blood-red base of Crystal Reds with the explosive, stark white patterning of the legendary Pinto gene. This is ultra-elite, living art for the most discerning aquarist.


Key Features & Highlights (Bullet Points)

  • 👑 ULTRA-ELITE PINTO PATTERNING: The coveted Pinto gene creates breathtaking, high-contrast white markings including stripes, spots, and zebra patterns over a solid, deep wine-red base, making each shrimp a unique work of art.

  • 🧬 SUPERIOR GENETIC LINEAGE: Bred from the finest Crystal Red and Pinto stock, these shrimp carry the genes to produce the most sought-after patterns in the hobby, including Fishbone, Tiger, and Mosura in their offspring.

  • 📈 THE ULTIMATE BREEDER'S CHALLENGE: This is a premium breeding project for the serious hobbyist. Successfully cultivating and refining this line is the highest achievement, offering the potential for both personal satisfaction and significant value.

  • 🌊 INDICATOR OF PRISTINE MASTERY: Thriving and breeding these shrimp is the ultimate testament to your skill in maintaining perfect, stable water conditions. They are the final boss of aquarium keeping.

  • 💰 HIGH-VALUE COLLECTOR'S ITEM: Individual shrimp with exceptional Pinto patterning are considered valuable assets and are traded among top breeders worldwide. This is an investment-grade aquatic hobby.


Detailed Description

You have reached the summit. Wine Red Crystal Shrimp with the Pinto gene represent the absolute zenith of the aquatic hobbyist's journey. This is not a purchase; it is an acquisition of living genetics, a project that demands the utmost dedication, precision, and passion.

These shrimp are the result of decades of selective breeding, a perfect fusion of color and pattern intensity. The "Wine Red" refers to the deep, opaque, and uniform red coloration that serves as the perfect canvas for the unpredictable and dramatic white "Pinto" patterns that slash across their shells.

Caring for them is a discipline. They require impeccably clean, soft, and acidic water within a very narrow range of parameters. Fluctuations are not tolerated. But for those who achieve this equilibrium, the reward is a self-sustaining colony of the most stunning invertebrates on Earth, each one more unique than the last.

Ideal For:

  • The Expert & Professional Shrimp Breeder

  • Advanced Aquarists seeking the ultimate challenge

  • Collectors and connoisseurs of rare aquatic life

  • Those looking to invest in a high-value breeding project


Specifications & Care Guide (At a Glance)



Parameter Requirement
Scientific Name Caridina cantonensis var. "Wine Red Pinto"
Grade Varies (Often SS to SSS)
Tank Size Minimum 5 gallons (~20 Liters)
Water Temp 64°F - 74°F (18°C - 23°C)
pH Level Critical: 5.5 - 6.5 (Very Soft, Acidic)
GH 4-5 dGH
KH 0-1 dKH
TDS 90-130

Important Notes & Considerations

  • ⚠️ ABSOLUTELY EXPERT-LEVEL ONLY: These are perhaps the most sensitive freshwater shrimp available. Not for beginners or even intermediate hobbyists. Success requires prior experience with other Caridina species (e.g., standard CRS, Taiwan Bees).

  • 🧪 PRECISION WATER PARAMETERS REQUIRED: Stability is non-negotiable. You must have and regularly use a TDS pen, GH/KH test kit, and pH monitor. Guessing will result in failure.

  • 🚫 ZERO TOLERANCE FOR POLLUTANTS: They are extremely sensitive to ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates (>10 ppm). A mature, fully cycled tank with an active biofilm is mandatory.

  • 📦 EXTENDED DRIP ACCLIMATION: 3-4 hours of slow drip acclimation is mandatory to avoid osmotic shock. Their sensitivity to parameter changes is extreme.

  • 🔬 SPECIES-ONLY TANK: Must be kept in a dedicated tank with no other shrimp or fish to avoid stress, competition, and cross-breeding.


Live Arrival Guarantee

We treat these shrimp with the utmost care. They are packed individually in breather bags with plenty of moss and a neutral shipping medium. Our live arrival guarantee reflects our confidence in their health and our packaging. You must be available to receive the package and begin immediate, slow acclimation.

Accept the ultimate challenge. Acquire the living legend that is the Wine Red Pinto shrimp.

Solid Anker quality, but listing needs actual dimensions
Color: Black, Set name: 1 Pack
Charging works exactly as you'd expect from Anker. 15W MagSafe-compatible, grips the back of the phone firmly, no heat issues, no drop-offs during overnight charging. Zero complaints on function. My gripe is with the listing, not the product. I was building this into a 3D-printed nightstand dock and needed the exact diameter and thickness to model the recess. Amazon's listing doesn't give you those dimensions, so I spent way too long digging through Q&A and other reviews piecing it together from people who measured theirs with calipers. For a product that people absolutely do integrate into custom mounts, cases, and furniture, leaving out basic physical dimensions is a miss. Weight isn't listed either, which matters if you're mounting it. Fix the listing and this is a 5-star. Compact enough once you have it in hand, plays nicely with a standard USB-C PD brick (not included, worth noting), and compatibility with my MagSafe case was seamless. Included accessories are just the charger and cable, so plan on supplying your own wall adapter. Trust the Anker name, just wish the product page respected buyers enough to publish the measurements.

Even better than the more expensive options
Color: White, Set name: 2 Pack
I’ve tried a few different wireless chargers, and these really impressed me. They charge quickly, connect easily, and stay in place without any fuss. The magnetic hold is strong and reliable, which makes everyday use super convenient. Honestly, they’ve worked even better for me than the Apple ones I’ve used before. Getting a two-pack is also a great value. Definitely a solid upgrade for anyone looking for a dependable charger.

Love anker
Color: White, Set name: 1 Pack
Anker is always my go to. Their products are high quality and reliable. This charger isn’t my main charger, but I have had no problems with it for the few months I’ve had it. It’s perfect for a public area where guests have either a lightning or USB-C port because it charges either type of phone as long as their phone has a magnetic charging back. It does warm up after keep it on it for too long but that’s expected. Great value, worth the buy. just get it lol

These Work with My Pixel 10 Pro
Color: White, Set name: 2 Pack
I purchase these without seeing the "Apple only designation" by accident but I am happy to report that these are working properly with my Pixel 10 Pro. They charge around 12.5W normally with some fluctuation up or down depending on load & need so they're instantly about twice as fast charging as a lot of the other 15W wireless chargers from competitors. I have not experienced the issue with the charger shutting off at 80% and no longer charging past that point. Nor have I had the issue with needing to unplug/re-plug in the charging for it to work each time. Rather, these chargers work at/near the advertised charging power rates, at a reasonable temperature (not overly hot), and fully charge my phone. I believe that the work done by Google/Anker behind the scenes has greatly improved the ability to utilize this product from how it was 3 months ago, let alone the mess that it was 6 months ago. The magnetic attraction is strong enough to stay in place but also not too strong that it is difficult to remove it. And the ability to utilize it while still using my phone is truly great. While I cannot speak for the success of others, I personally am a big fan of the product as a non-Apple phone owner.

Great charger!
Color: White, Set name: 1 Pack, Color: White, Set name: 1 Pack
Great charger. Doesn’t get my phone super hot like the last charger I had. Great price for upgrading to a new charger. Got it in white so I can easily fine it next to my bed. My phone does say slow charger when I put the charger on, but it seems to charge pretty quick!
