BTA and peppermint shrimp

dkling · 04-07-2007, 02:47 PM

I just added a bubble tip anemone to my tank, it did not take long for the peppermint shrimp to find it .
Will the shrimp eat the BTA? I called the LFS that I got it from and the guy
daid he thinks the BTA will kill the shrimp, I dont think he knows what he talking about . Is he right ? My head hurts.

I know that peppermint shrimp sometimes go for aptaisia, but I don't think it would go for a bubble...

It is possible for a bubble to eat a shrimp, but I don't think that happens very often...

Not sure, would be interested to find out how it goes though.

My cleaner shrimp is always cleaning my BTA, don't know why, They always hang out together and for some reason the shrimp never gets stung! So hopefully will be no problem

I have 3 of the shrimp picking at it and keeping it closed up.

Doesn't sound too good... Does your haed still hurt?
