    peppermint shrimp not eating aptasias:(

    I tried the boiling water and it didnt work either. I went to every store in atlanta looking for a damn shrimp to eat these aptasias without having to use any other means and now they're just sitting there swaying back and forth:(

    peppermint shrimp not eating aptasias:(

    My tank is over run with huge aptasias that i got some peps to "take" care of. All i have right now are some hermits and the shrimp. So i dont feed the tank anything right now. Will the peps get hungry enough to eat the aptasias or will they starve first?
