Which Shrimp is 1000$ reef safe????

Not 100%, nothing is, but your best bet are Skunk cleaners. Useful for fish as well.  My hermit is on timeout in my sump cause I caught him munching on an acan and my goni...

 

i still ill gotta knock my shrimp away when I target feed the sun coral, cause he'll steal food from it

There is distinct difference in the look between camels and peppermints.

 

Camels have whiter lines and a very large hump.

 

Peppermints don't.

 

Many of us have had peppermints destroy corals.

 

Mine destroyed 3 brains in 1 day.

 

They were definitely peppermints.

 

They actually have a reputation for possibly going after coral.

I got a peppermint shrimp from an lfs one day, and it would just beat up coral for food.  Returned it.  It was definitely a peppermint.
