Aiptasia Patrol Duo — 2x Peppermint Shrimp
Aiptasia Patrol Duo — 2x Peppermint Shrimp
Lysmata wurdemanni doesn’t mess around with aiptasia — send in a pair and they’ll actively hunt down that pest anemone problem instead of just tolerating it. Two Peppermint Shrimp, priced as a set below what you’d pay buying them one at a time, because this is a job that goes faster with backup.
Includes: 2x Peppermint Shrimp (Large)
Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful · Max size: ~2" each · Min tank: 20 gal · Reef safe: With caution (may nip soft coral/inverts) · Diet: Omnivore, scavenger + pest anemones

When it ships
Most non-quarantined stock goes out the week you order. If we do not already have the animal in-house we source it first — allow up to two weeks for it to reach us. Live animals leave Monday and Tuesday, and Early AM Overnight is the only service that carries a live arrival guarantee.
The live guarantee
Shipped Early AM Overnight: a 1-hour DOA window from confirmed delivery, and nothing beyond it. Next Day Air and 2-Day carry no live arrival guarantee, and neither does USPS Priority. Local pickup or local delivery: 24 hours, if you bring a water sample from your aquarium and we test it before the animal goes home. Maintenance clients: 60 days when we service the aquarium at least twice a month, 28 days on a monthly plan.
