Hello R2R!

Has anyone had problems with peppermint shrimp being all over their goniopora? Every time they open the male starts crawling all over it and he closed down. The female only does this after feeding.

They do this with our zoas, leathers, etc after feed but I am concerned that they are going to stress out our goniopora.

Are we just being ridiculous?
 
I had purchased 20 for my tank cause I had an aptasia problem, sure enough they did nothing for me cause if they find food they don't go for the aptasia. They might stress it if they keep doing it over and over cause then the goniopora won't eat when you feed. I would take them out
