Interesting. I've never had peppermint or skunk shrimp consume any of my corals, but they will pick at dying or rotting flesh on corals, and will steal food from the coral's mouth.

They were interesting to watch when I first started out in reefing but that quickly went away and now I really don't see the need to keep them in coral aquariums. Hermits and snails are great reef custodians.
