How many peppermint shrimp?

[cbianco]

i wouldn't say thats true ..... i added 100+ in the first week they ate most of the acans i had and a big open brain but my mystery wrasse, green corris wrasse ate good for 3 months

i have never seen fish grow so fast

Just to share my experience... I used one peppermint for my 30 gallon. It did it's job well but only lasted about 1.5 years.

I'm with Troy on this one, start small and work up. You already have 4 shrimp and I assume that you have some snails and hermits as well. I don't know your feeding regimin but if you hardly feed I wouldn't add any. If you feed regularly then add a few. I just wouldn't want to see the shrimp starve or go after your corals.
