It looks like a peppermint not a camel, camels have a kind of distinct "hump"

Actually, if you read the discussion closely they are talking about two different species of peppermint shrimp. The only mention of camel shrimp is at the very beginning where they talk about the "pronounced hump". Yours does NOT have the hump, therefore it is a peppermint.

Mine does, haven't seen any apitasia since adding it to the tank, it was all gone within a couple weeks, each night a little more would disappear.

Also eats mysis shrimp, flakes, pellets, pretty much anything that it can grab before the fish.

It's a peppermint, not camel.

Some peppermint shrimp do not eat aptaisia, they need to be trained to do so.

Looks like my peppermint shrimp. Mine do take care of any small aiptasia that appear on new rock in my tank, they also try to clean my fingers when I'm moving stuff around!
