Description: The Peppermint Shrimp is a smart addition to all reef aquariums because of its desire to eat nuisance glass anemones (Aiptasia). The body of the Peppermint shrimp is somewhat transparent with red stripes that run parallel along their body. Peppermint Shrimp are very easy to care for and prefer to be kept in groups. They should be fed daily and will not harm other shrimp. Peppermint Shrimp grow quickly and will molt. Leftover bodies are not dead shrimp, you are seeing the exoskeleton remains of what was shed, when the molt. In order for Shrimp to grow they need to shed their exoskeleton, a process called "molting", which allows them to remove their restricting shell and begin a new one. Often times in the home aquarium Shrimp will leave this translucent shell in full view so it can serve as a distraction while the Shrimp finds a hiding place and allows its new shell to harden

Care Level: Easy

Reef Safe: An excellent reef aquarium species

Recommended Minimum Tank Size: 10 gallon or larger

Diet: The diet of the Peppermint Shrimp may include Brine, live or frozen foods, pellet and flaked foods

Company Details

It all started with a small aquarium in the year 2000 when I was 9. It was nothing short of a life-changing experience for me. The Turbo Snail was busy munching up the bad Algae on the glass of the aquarium; a Yellow Tang was busy grazing on one of the corals, a Sailfin chasing away competition, Percula Clowns sneaking up from their host Anemones! The aquarium had so much of color and life in it. Nothing stood still, and each one of the living beings went about their work, quietly and gently. It soon grew to be one of my greatest inspirations, leading me to pursue my passion for marine life and create a living out of it. And a day, here in Kolkata, I am ready to share all that I love and have learnt, with more people. Creating the awareness about this hobby was the biggest challenge that I faced, coupled with the quality of the live stocks that was sold in the market. I decided to create Marine World where quality imported live stocks and other accessories would be available at the best prices. For over 10 years Marine World’s marine fishes & other live decorative supply have been invited into the homes of millions of hobbyist - aquarium & fish, and more - making us one of the leading direct marketer and importer of marine fish supplies in the country.

Each specimen is visually inspected by us before it is selected for your aquarium. While in our care, every fish is offered the proper foods to meet its specific nutritional requirements. We also stand committed to excellent customer service and post sales support for all our customers.
People say a successful career is made when you do what you love to do. I'm not here to sell my proposition to you. I am just doing what I love to do the most. I hope you'll also share in this passion, soon.
