peperment shrimp will they eat soft corals

Will pepermane shrimp eat other soft coral. I know they eat aptisia but what else

 

No, peppermints wont eat corals. Theres a good chance they won't eat aiptasia either And be prepared as you will never see them. I had 3 of them for aiptasia and it was a complete waste of time and money IMO. Just get Joe's Juice or Aiptasia-X and be done with it
The problem with corals is that peppermints are often mis-id'd with camels. A lot of places selling peppermints are actually selling camel's. Camel shrimp will go after corals

 

Well have some polups that haven't opened since adding shrimp. Just wondering

 

I have 2 in my tank which is full of softies...and no issues at all. They do a great job of keeping the atipasia down.

 

They don't eat corals, however they may nip on anemones. They are known to "attack" carpet anemones!

 

Likewise they will munch down decorative tube anemones. If they are new-ish it could be that they have been walking over the polyps and bothering them. Give it a little time, watch for damage.

 

There are 2 types of peppermints.. One that does eat aptasia's and one that doesn't.. The trick is finding someone who knows the difference... Do I know the difference?? Heck no!!! But my friend who has his own ebay store does...

 

very rarly see mine since I got him. Only once actualy. But At night might be walking on polyps. Thanks for all imput. Would like to find out what is the diffrence in peperment shrimp though any help with that would be appreacited.

 

My buddies at his pool league tonight.. I'll find out from him tomorrow and let you know....
