Hey all,

There has been some recent changes to the wudemanni complex (Peppermint shrimp) classification. There appear to be at least 5 caribbean species with more in the Pacific.

A longer discussion can be found here:
http://forum.marinedepot.com/Topic39...ght=peppermint

I would be willing to bet money that anyone selling Peppermint shrimp in this hobby (unless they are personally raising them and have been watching them devour Aiptasia) will not have enough skills to tell the species apart.

It is basically a crapshoot trying to get the right species that eats Aiptasia.

Brian
