Peppermint Shrimp eating my corals

[Saltar]

They are eating my galxea and what ever this is? How do you capture these things so I can rid them of my tank! Or suggestions on how to make them quit eating my corals up. Thanks.

Are you sure it's not a camel shrimp

 

[Saltar]

No they are peppermint. These are more red than white.

Oh ok maybe you can try feeding at night when lights out and try catching it with a net

 

[Saltar]

I have 2 of them and they are doing this after lights go out. I guess I get to build a trap tomorrow.

They might just be stealing food from it.

If they are actually eating it, make a trap. Get a pop bottle and cut off the top 1/3. Cut an opening in the top piece big enough for the shrimp to fit through. Turn the top piece upside down and put in the bottom piece. Put some food in the trap and bury it at an angle in the sand. Wait overnight and you should have some shrimp. ;)
