How sure are you that the shrimp are peppermints? I've seen camels (candy) shrimp sold as peppermints, but they are not reef safe

Pretty sure they are peps. I bought them from a reputable lfs here in town. How can i tell the difference?

By the way, i've checked my tank at night and i haven't seen anything eating my zoas. I'm all out of ideas on what's going on in my tank.

I have a few amphipods on the frag, maybe it's eating the dead zoa. The other zoas are fine.

I have the same sized amphipods hanging around that zoa. I think I found my culprit.
