Aptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp at AC

Let us know what kind of tank citizens they turn out to be.

And remember that peppermint shrimp and Berghia are usually not compatible (the shrimp eat the Berghia).
 
Can confirm the ones at Neptune will too. Was there on Saturday and asked them to place a fat aiptasia from the snail tank in the peppermint shrimp's. After a couple seconds of hesitation, they went to town on it! Took one home and already see a couple of the long term resident aiptasias gone.

I previously kept them manageable with Aiptasia X but found that it's more of a temporary solution to stunt them but always came back.

I picked one up week before last. Small aphasia issue (4-6 of em). Just noticed tonight there's only one, though I haven't seen the peppermint shrimp since I put it in the tank.
 
I used to love peppermint shrimps but now i put them in my do not keep list... at least for any tanks with nems, if you intend on keeping nems.

I've seen them work ovet RFAs pretty good... and damage btas while trying to rob food out of their mouths
