DO NOT GET THIS CONFUSED WITH THE CAMEL SHRIMP!!! Those will eat your coral and do not eat aiptasia. These peppermint shrimp are the most peaceful shrimp and are your best bet to eating aiptasia in your tank.

Out of all the things my puffer fish killed he’s mesmerized by the peppermint shrimp. Doesn’t touch him. 4 years and still alive. Any ideas?

@lpskitfit 2 жыл бұрын

That's impressive given the peppermint shrimp average lifespan of 2 years. You're clearly doing something right!!

I just got 2 of them. Got them home and put them to aclamated to the temperature by flitting the bag on the tank and when I come to check on the the back was full with peppermint shrimp babies.

@@BrockLeonard I most go today to my local aquarium store for some frozen brain shrimp babies and the supply need to hatch new ones home so I can keep the peppermint shrimp babies fed! I am keeping the two adults that come in the bag with the babies for now and it seem to be fine. Any tips to improve my chances of keeping them alive?

@BrockLeonard 5 жыл бұрын

Isa Abd Rahman Sosa-Dominguez Try to keep everyone in the tank well fed because other fish will see those baby shrimps as snacks if they start to get hungry.

When they nibble on your hand while in the tank, that’s the best 😂

Hı thanks for the video how can we breed this shrimp ? Lots of the time people who tries to breed this no baby shrimps could stays alive. What is the secret of this? what can we do to breed these lovely things??

@BrockLeonard 3 жыл бұрын

I've never seen someone do it successfully. They will lay eggs often but they tend to get eaten by the shrimp or other fish. If any are to survive the next hard part is feeding them tiny live foods for them to eat.

Can you do a video on aptasia or do you have one already? I have no clue what they are or look like.

Waaaay different than my experience. Mine takes food from my hi fin goby, wrecked a frogspawn coral, killed a fighting conch. All this I watched it do. Its not a camel shrimp either I assure you. These guys are little terrorists. 1 lives in the sump, the other will once I catch it. Maybe I'll feed it to my buddies trigger.
