mine eats flake and brine. he devoured the aiptasia first though.

no it looks to be white fingers, and a grey center, the center looks like its fuzzy/slimy.

Woah! what is that? Looks like a dotty... Royal Garama?

Doubt its aiptasia, they're red. I had some aiptasia, and the peppermint shrimp took care of them in no time.

Ok, this is weird. Last night I added a Orchid Dottyback, I know he's not responsible for it, but I woke up to one of my peppermint's decapitated, meat still in his body. My inverts are, 3 blue leg hermits, 2 turbo snails, and were 2 peppermint's, now its just one. How could this of happened...
