What do you mean by that? Is your CRS mosura or what kind of grade? Best to provide picture so we can give you a more definite answer

erm...he's mentioning about cherries, not BDS.

dnsfpl, you sure it was cherry in the first place ?
Could have been this http://www.petshrimp.com/serratirostris.html that hide itself as a cherry.

Likely, they are wild form of cherry, if you would to cross "black shell" shrimp as what LFS call and cherry, you will get something look like black shell shrimp which is like this form.
