These guys hide all day long but as soon as the moon lights come on in the tank they are out and about. Interesting to watch.

Peppermint shrimp
Ordered 2 BOGO free. They arrived healthy and were larger than I expected. Thanks!!
Adam N of Iowa
Awesome
I bought 10 of these and put them in my tank hoping they would kill my aiptasia. They did it in the matter of two days. These seem to be more social than most peppermints ive seen and one even jumped on my hand and cleaned a piece of skin off of it. My cleaners do this all the time, but I never expected a peppermint to do it. A+!!!

Peppermint Shrimp Review
I ordered two of these fellows and both arrived alive and well. I put them in my tank and they seem to be doing just fine. Another great purchase from Reefs2Go and fast service.

Peppermint Shrimp
Ordered 6 (5) arrived alive and well. Only one didn't make it. I blame UPS and there not so great delivery times for my Overnight stuff. The rest have taken up house on the reef.
