Icon5 Evil Peppermint Shrimp!!!!

I just got A new torch coral today and placed it in the tank. My shrimp all scuttled over to look at the new addition, as usual. But my pep shrimp took unusual interest in this one.

They were doin work on my coral!!!! It was like they thought it was aiptasia or somethin.
No this isn't A camelback shrimp, its a peppermint.

So what should I do? Take um out?(I got a mantis who would like to see um Or should I take um out, wait for the coral to open, and then let the shrimp go?

Thanks for reading

Default Re: Evil Peppermint Shrimp!!!!

ooh, i just had this problem yesterday with my frogspawn... i took him back to my lfs. i also fed the little bugger right before putting the coral next to him again and he somehow made room for my frogspawn. i traded him in for some nar. snales which are very entertaining!
