peppermint shrimp
i never had any success with pepperment shrimp-and if you have a wrasse he's probably having a good feed.i just brought another 25 berghia down to j&l and we're selling them for 14.95 right now-they take time but they get rid of the aptasia

I would blame it on the green wrasse. I have tried peppermints several times...never saw them again. I have had 2 cleaners for about a year.They are a good size.Recently my big green wrasse was cruising around the tank with one in his mouth..It took him awhile to swallow it.Now I can't see the other one either.

I only see my peppermint shrimp once every 2 or 3 weeks, and only if I come down and look in the tank in the middle of the night. They're extremely good at hiding, and only seem to come out if the entire room (not just the tank) has been dark for awhile. They have kept control of my aiptasia, but they won't eliminate it.
How long did you acclimate them? I was having trouble keeping them, then my LFS told me you need to drip them for at least 45 minutes, preferably 90 minutes, for them to stand any chance of survival. Once successfully aclimated they seem pretty hardy though.
