i jus bought 3 peppermint shrimp in the hopes that they will rid me of my aiptasia but when i got them home they were clear and not red anymore. what gives?
Probably stressed. Their normal color should return after they settle in.

Peppermint fading in colorr is normal.
What was your acclimation procedure?
they didn't want to colour clash with the other tank mates. dont worry, tommorow is red pin strip skivey day
