Perpermint shrimp ate my Frogspawn I think

I have a peppermint in my tank with a frogspawn. I've never had it touch my frogspawn.
 
Peppermint shrimp are evil. After having my peppermint shrimp for many months they decided one day to start eating all my mini-maxi anemones, then they moved on to LPS. It makes no difference how often you feed them, some just go rouge. These were not camel shrimp. Peppermint sometimes just become opportunistic feeders. Look around on forums, there are tons of reports of peppermints shrimp eating LPS.

They will definently try to eat any food that lands on it...and can get mad and rip the heads off...but eat it...nawwwww
 
My peppermint shrimp ate acans and blastos, so I moved them to a fish-only tank. Remember that these shrimp eat a variety of things, including anemones. If they find something edible, they will go for it.
