Will peppermint shrimp eat acan corals. In 2 days I've nearly lost 3 frags and the only thing I can see is a peppermint shrimp picking at them.

No in my experience. See what they are actually picking at, maybe you have flatworms or something the peppermints are eatting.
 
That's not the norm in my experience.
Let's see what the next guy says [emoji12]
Kinda what I'm seeing is everyone says something differant. Seeing as I just watched one pull a chunk of my scan off the skeleton I'm gonna remove them for now and see if they recover or if my other acans start to decline to decide if it was them or not.
 
I have tons of acans and 3 peppermint shrimp in my 90. Zero issues.
Tons of acans in my 32 with 2 peppermints, zero issues.
My experience as well, plenty of acans with two peps in my 80 DT. Zero issues.
