Re: New peppermint

About 3 months ago I purchased 2 pepperment shrimp to control my aiptasia. These shrimp hid and was not seen for almost a month. Even at night. Thought they were dead or one of my two very large green brittle stars had chowed down on them. But what I didn't realize was that my aiptasia population was dwindling. And in another 2 weeks NOT A SINGLE AIPTASIA was present! Now these two pepperments are pretty much out to see and are taking care of any aiptasia that may appear. This was one of the best additions to my 75 gal reef/fish tank. Now everytime I put my hands in the tank, they are there to greet me. Should I offer them silversides or just leave em alone to fend for themselves with no more aiptasia to eat? Thanks, Ron
