I noticed a clump of hermit crabs today. Upon closer inspection they were feeding upon the carcass of the Peppermint Shrimp. Time to update the tank specs.
I'm curious as to why I don't have much luck with shrimp, but everything else seems to do fine. I'm sure there's a basic rule on that somewhere, but c'mon! How much harder is it to keep a shrimp than an Anemone?
As it previous posts, the shrimp was only acquired for the elimination of aiptasia. And it failed at that. So between not doing it's "job", plus being nocturnal, the shrimp won't be missed much.
Anyway, RIP Peppermint Shrimp.
