Tagging along, I have the same problem..... but they've managed to get into the sump & the 2nd refugium/seahorse display tank on the same level. I have a feeling I helped with that though by moving rocks around, but none thus far in the main display tank. So far only little tiny ones all over the glass.

Update:
K, I am not taking a chance and bought 6 peppermints from Kevin @ Red Coral... Thanks again Kevin! Kevin brings in peppermints that do eat the unwanted critters, he will even show you before you buy... So hopefully these guys don't get sucked into pumps and can do their job. Oh Yeah!!! One is about to have babies, so yippee!

Well what a waste of money!!!!
Already found 2 peppermint shrimp in my skimmer intake pump. I can't see the other 4, maybe they are alive... But who knows! No shrimp hovering around the aptaisa, so I think this isn't going to work. the fact I can't see them is maybe telling me they got sucked into my NP BioPellet Reactors (I have 3 of them). That was a waste of money!!!!

That sucks.
I had the same problem with the aiptasia in my sump but the peppermints worked for me. I put them in the refugium where it was the worst and screened off the section where my skimmer and return pump are so they couldn't get in there. I didn't feed them anything so they had to eat the aiptasia. Once they were done I moved them to the display tank. It's not a sure thing i guess.
