WTB aptasia eating peppermint shrimp

[Nmertz1]

Like the tile says, I'm looking for a peppermint shrimp that will eat aptasia.

Do these guys also eat coral/other anemones? I've got every kInd of coral in my tank as well as a sunburst anemone.

I bought one at elite reef and he has only eaten my aptasia......if the aptasia is too big though they won't eat it.....but no they don't eat corals mine will walk over the corals and find aptasia but no harm done ......it was also only like $7 at elite reef

What do they do when aptasia is gone? Do they scavenge leftover food, etc?
