Red Ruby, also sold as Ruby Red, is a Taiwan Bee that is red all over, with little or no white on the head, back or tail. It was selectively bred from Wine Red.

Taiwan Bees are selectively bred bee shrimp (Caridina cantonensis) that came out of Taiwan in the early 2000s. A shrimp with irregular white patches on a red body is a different morph, the Pinto. There's no single grading standard; the deeper and more even the red, the better.

Care is the same as other Taiwan Bees: soft, acidic water over an active soil, and small, steady water changes.
