Peppermint shrimp

[wkopplin]

Did you know peppermint shrimp like to eat fan worms? I didn't. I got two huge fan worms from CB Pets tonight and put them in my fuge. Within seconds, the peppermint shrimp were all over them tearing at their fans. I promptly removed them and placed them in my regular tank. I was going to put some Xenia in the fuge to grow it out a little, but will the shrimp go for them too?

If your lucky...LOL..... The only way to find out is to try a little piece.

I have a couple of pepermint shrimps in my tank along with my xenia and they don't seem to bother it

Some do some don't. I've had peppermints before that won't bother anything even aptasia, other times they are brutal.
