Are you sure it is a peppermint shrimp....alot of times camels are sold as " peppermints" and if this is the case they eat all kinds of corals.

Does it look like this?

If the torch "moved" on it's own. It is not a torch coral, as they do not have a foot and lack the ability to move about.

it hopped off the frag and onto the shelf i had it on first and was all curled up, without the light on i couldn't see it. in the morning i moved the frag and saw it where the frag was originally.

what would it be if its not a torch? some sort of anemone? it didn't so much 'move' per-say, as it did detach from my frag and latch onto the rock shelf..

if its an anemone will i still have to be worried about my peppermint eating it?

You are Correct tlo. It is not a torch but a fogspawn
