So I had a couple aptaisa so I added a couple peppermint shrimp and now a week later they are all gone but 1. The one left has a head the size of a quarter and was bigger than the others. Will peppermint shrimp eat an aptaisa that big?

Yup but for that it must be badly hungry so don't feed it for some days. As soon as it eats all of them, start feeding it as it will start to move to corals so keep an eye on it. I think It may not eat that big one

big aptasia need to be removed using aptasia X or F-aptasia. make sure to syphon out the aptasia after feeding it aptasia X with a 1/4
hose. Also make sure the powerheads are off so that the solution wont get into the water column.
