How Do You Tell The Grades

[mooey65]

Iv got some CRS already (very low grade I think there the lowest you can get)
Iv also got some CRS coming there said to b e grade S.

How do you tell the grades?
Has any one got pics of all the grades google image does not help.

Thanks

S grade like you have ordered will have 5 clear bands but with slightly rough edges and a small amount of transparent remaining. SS has just 5 clear bands with no impurities within the band. You should be able to breed SS with selective breeding within 3-5 generations if your strict.

Thank you for that great help the ones I have now are grade C or B.
They will be ok in the same tank?

They will cross breed and bring down the quality of the ones you are getting thus defeating the object of getting nice ones as in 1-2 years time the S will die and the babies are unlikely to be as aesthetically pleasing.

So I should remove them?
