[2] Krasnovishnevoye lies in the Baraba Lowland, West Siberian Plain.

[3] Located in an area of lakes, Krasnovishnevoye displays unusual characteristics compared to its immediate neighbors.

But so far no research has been carried out to establish whether there are meteorite fragments under the layer of salt and mud at the center of the lake.

Regarding phytoplankton and presence of purple bacteria there are similarities between Krasnovishnevoye and some salt lakes of the Kulunda Plain, such as Malinovoye, but its harsher water conditions restrict its biodiversity to prokaryotes and unicellular algae.
