Please note: These shrimp are currently 2-3cm in size, which is still considered small for peppermint shrimp. They are healthy, active, and already feeding well on Aiptasia, but due to their size, we recommend caution if your tank includes wrasses or other more aggressive fish, as they may be at risk.
If you’re concerned about compatibility or prefer larger specimens, feel free to check back soon, we’re growing on future batches and expect larger shrimp to become available soon. At GreenWave Aquatics, we are proud to offer sustainably bred Peppermint Shrimp, a natural solution for managing unwanted aiptasia in your reef tank. These stunning little shrimp, with their characteristic red stripes, are not only attractive but also effective members of your tank’s clean-up crew.
