Peppermint in a Nano?

[poop_head]

I'm thinking of getting a peppermint shrimp for my 10 gal. Will it be fine in a nano?

Should be ok, but if you going reef you may not want to get one because ive seen a couple threads lately abotu peoples peps eating their coral, and ive caught one of my peps picking at a hammer coral once.

I have one in my ten gallon and I get to see him about once a week or whenever I throw some food in. Very secretive and have caught him trying to snag a nass. snail but I was there to the rescue! I won't buy another.

I have five in my JBJ 24 DX and two in my JBJ 12 DX. They eat feather dusters and aiptasia, you shouldn't have problems with them eating anything else. Mine are very active and are out and about most of the time.
:joy:

Do peppermint shrimp do well with other shrimp types? I have a cleaner skunk currently....
