Peppermint Shrimp Eating Aptasia

Or should I rephrase to Aptasia Eating Peppermint Shrimp?

Anyway, here some of the shots. I don't know about yours, mine definately eat aptasia. They rush to the anemone as soon as I put the aptasia in. If I put a bta there, they care less. I put a frag of Colt there, they will not care either.

However, beware, as to any captive animals, their habit and diet will change due to changing environment.

Originally, just thinking of trading something but since it's now in commercial forum, I will sell then. I am about to be able to breed these little bugs to adult. By then I must make sure to train them to eat aptasia and you will see them available on a daily basis too. HAHA

Exactly, how close are you to successfully raising the larvae to adulthood?

Not as successful as the cleaner shrimps. When I am ready, I will document it with pics. They die before they take the shape of a shrimp.

As for cleaner shrimps upto 3 weeks, with shape of a shrimp somewhat less than 1 cm without the help of a tumbler. Expect to do much better when I finish building the tumbler.
