Peppermint Shrimp eh? I've been considering adding one to my aquarium but I'm afraid of starving the little guy since I have only one aiptasia in my tank.

Peppermint shrimp are scavengers. They do not need aptasia to survive. They "help" to control your aptasia. So you would'nt be starving it if you were to introduce one to your tank.

when I had rock with this stuff on it it had aptasia also and the peppermint shrimp was added to get ride of that well after getting rid of the aptasia they also got ride of the algae. by the way that algae is a kind of Halimeda algae.
