I think this goes here k have no corals just live rock fish and shrimp/crabs.
Anyways!!! So I know ONE person in real life who has a salt water tank and he says his peppermint shrimp bites him I read online they cannot bite you.
So I put the theory to question today during my water change. I have a VERY friendly peppermint shrimp the second one is very curious but still scared.
So as always when my hand gets in the tank he wants to say hi I never swatted him away I would just wiggle my fingers until he fell off rinse repeat until I was done.
Today!!! I decided let him I thought man that little dude bite me then again and again!!! Then I finally realized he was just pulling my little hairs out of my hand like he was looking for aptasia!!!! He never bite me he was almost like cleaning my hand!
