Default Dilemma/advice needed ASAP
I bought 4 adult Berghia Nudibbranches a month and a half ago to rid my aptasia, havnt noticed much of a difference. So today I got 4 peppermint shrimp only to notice when I got home my glass had a whole bunch of baby nudies. Peppermints eat nudies I have read. Any advice??? My Peppermints are acclimating as we speak.

What advice are you looking for? You want them all to get along? You want to save the babies? I'm sorry, I'm not following...

Default ps
do not put the shrimp in-take them back to the lfs and explain whats happened.beghia take some time to do their job -but they are thorough.i found that peppermint shrimp are hit and miss,cannibalistic,and not always reef safe
