I am thinking of getting a peppermint shrimp to take care of my aiptasia. I have heard quite a few success stories and i would like to get one. The deciding questions are will one get along with a cleaner shrimp in a 30g tank? Also what are your experiences with them munching on soft corals. I have some zoos, shrooms, xenia, will it munch on these.

Thanx b;)

my peppermint like to hang out in groups of at least 3. i wouldn't worry about compatability with corals because they won't bother them. they go well with cleaner shrimp and they won't really bother each other. if you have a bad aptasia problem you probably want to get a few shrimp anyway.

I kept one with my cleaner and many soft corals and it never caused any trouble.
