so for the second time i have lost a beautiful fire fish to my peppermint shrimp! i had no idea that they were aggressive. i was excited that they kept my aptasia away but am thinking of getting rid of them in favor of another fire. anyone else
ran into this? i saw someone lost a peppermint to a bloodred but couldnt find anything else. so..... anyone need some
peppermint shrimp?

Is it possible the firefish died, and the peppermint was eating the dead fish? They are usually scavengers.
