today i went to the lfs and purchased an clown gobby and a branching frogspawn lovely additions i might add i am vary pleased with my self right now but the downside is i am now ripping my hair out because i inspected the frog. completely at the lfs and even had them look for imperfections before i got it but some how i missed a small aiptasia at the base of one of the branches on the frog. and have been told that since the aiptasia is on the rock kalkwasser would not be a good idea that i should try peppermint shrimp so that is what i plan on anyone have any tips and how many pep. shrimp do you think i should have for a 55 g. i already have 2 scarlet and 1 blood shrimp also would an arrowhead crab eat it?

For a 55 you wouldn't need very many pepppermints. I had so many Aiptasia all over my LR, and I bought only 2 peppermints for my 100 gal and in about a week mostly all the aiptasia were gone :eek: The peppermints even ate most of my large curli-q anemone :rolleyes:
