    ok, so i have a raging aptasia problem and i am trying to cure it the good old fashion way with peppermint shrimp. my question: do i order the bulk package from saltwater fish .com or the ORA shrimp? also from the same site? the price difference is huge, but i want the real deal. anyone have experience with this such order? i have to place it by tonight.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    I would just get the Saltwater.com, they pretty much guarantee they are not camel shrimp.

    Do you have any anemones? I had a couple peppermint shrimps, and I put a long tenticle anemone in my 90, those peppermint shrimp went to work on it. Killed it in a few hours. Not sure if this is the norm but I won't buy anymore.
