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?

[PSH]

Probably stressed. Their normal color should return after they settle in.

Peppermint fading in colorr is normal.

What was your acclimation procedure?

[V]

they didn't want to colour clash with the other tank mates. dont worry, tommorow is red pin strip skivey day

[dadonoflaw]

i do drip acclimation over a period of an hour or two depending on how difficult
