As a side note, it was mentioned that peppermints are not cleaners. Well, mine are confused then. I noticed recently that all 4 shrimp (2 peppermints, 1 cleaner and one fireshrimp who all occupy the same rock) now take "turns" cleaning their tankmates.]]> Tue, 30 Mar 2004 07:27:30 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21183&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21183 <![CDATA[New peppermint shrimp : I can usually find mine by looking...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21170&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21170 Author: rstruhs

I can usually find mine by looking for the long white feelers.  If you can't even find them, he may be lost at sea.]]> Tue, 30 Mar 2004 05:44:58 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21170&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21170 <![CDATA[New peppermint shrimp : We&#039;ll keep watching.

We'll keep watching.  Its only an 18 gallon tank though, there aren't that many places to hide.  ]]> Mon, 29 Mar 2004 21:49:45 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21144&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21144 <![CDATA[New peppermint shrimp : There is also the off chance that...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21135&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21135 Author: Carl

There is also the off chance that he is in a molt. They will hide out until the exoskeleon has been cast and the new one is hardened. It shouldn't take too long to do, but you never know.]]> Mon, 29 Mar 2004 20:42:38 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21135&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21135 <![CDATA[New peppermint shrimp : Look in the upside down hidey...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21114&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21114 Author: Weimers

Look in the upside down hidey holes.  Ours likes to hang upside down under shelves, in holes, in underhangs, etc.

Well, we'll keep looking, its just weird, he's been doing so well.  Just hanging out on top of the rocks, checking everything out.  Until now he hasn't hid at all.  The peppermints only come out when its night or feeding time though.]]> Mon, 29 Mar 2004 13:42:08 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21094&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21094 <![CDATA[New peppermint shrimp : Shrimp can fit into surprisingly...]]> http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21093&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21093 Author: ssilcox

Shrimp can fit into surprisingly small places. He is probably just hiding out and nervous from being introduced into the tank. Look for him at night - mine always like to scurry around the tank after lights out.

Ok I got a cleaner shrimp from Aquatica last week and he's been doing great.  Now, however, I can't find him anywhere!  No shrimp, no body, nothing.  It's not that big of a tank.  Has anyone had a cleaner shrimp go AWOL?  I've looked around the tank, but he could have gone a little ways before dying.]]> Mon, 29 Mar 2004 13:29:00 +0000 http://www.utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=1986&PID=21089&title=new-peppermint-shrimp#21089
