Hey all!! I’m shocked and happy at the same time. I got two pep shrimps yesterday about 1” a piece. I had about 15-20 aptasias some were the size of a quarter (no joke). Now 24hrs later they are ALL gone. Is this normally how pep shrimps operate? Anyway sorry for a non important post I’m just so stoked.

Yes, that is absolutely the only reason I have them in my tank! Glad that they worked for ya!

That's what they have done for me in the past. Now I use them as snacks for eels when I go on Vacation lol
 
Never had something work so quickly. Thx
Haha true! I said the same thing with Chemiclean for cyano, its like magic.

I just put in a new peppermint a few days ago to deal with aiptasia, mine took about 3 days until he got rid of about 50 in the tank, but I was quite impressed!
 
Yes they already latched on to my coral feeder with mysis. Last thing I wants is a $10 animal going to town on my corals lol
Still amazes me how much cheaper everything is in the USA. Here in Canada the going rate is about $30 for one, which I think is about $20 USD!

Dang that’s pricey! My lfs guy has them for $14 but he cuts me deals since I’m there weekly.

Wish I could get some peppermint shrimps but at the same time way too much invested in lps for them to eat or maybe ill just put then in the sump and move infected rocks to them

Ome of my tank is 90% LPS and has peppermint shrimp with no Aiptasia to eat. No issues with them. Squirter some mysis towards them and they are good.
