peppermint Shrimp

What are the differences between "true peppermint shrimps" and other peppermint shrimps? I bought one under the name "peppermint shrimp" and it sure looks like one, but it doesnt eat aiptasia worth a crap and it's got pincers similar to my emerald crabs. Maybe i got the wrong subspecies of peppermint? Ill post a pic as soon as the dust in my tank settles from being re-aquascaped.

Also, if this isnt a true pep, and i cant get rid of it...will it be ok to get one true peppermint shrimp AND a tiger pistol shrimp for my yellow watchman goby? Keep in mind i already have a skunk cleaner so that would make 4 total shrimp. Im going to try and either 1-learn to live with the aiptasia and just settle for joe's juicing the heck outta things every once in a while...2- get a true peppermint shrimp ALONG with the others. or 3- get rid of the imposter and just get the true peppermint.

Thanks,

-Adam
