not in my experience. I had a peppermint in my refugium to get rid of the aptaisia, and it cleaned them out in about a week. Then over the next week, it decimated 90% of the pod population even though I fed it regularly. And I watched it hunt. ....there isn't really any work involved in catching pods, it just ran around and grabbed them like they were standing still.
While shrimp are entertaining to watch in a tank, I'd have to say that they aren't worth the damage they can do. Some people will tell you different, some will agree with me.
As for conflicting opinions, they're the only kind you'll ever get on ANY topic in this hobby.
