So I noticed one of my rock flowers weas looking a bit "dishevilled" and was moving around a bit. Then, I wasn't able to locate it, which didn't really concern me as there are a lot of hiding places. But one night near lights out, I noticed the 2 Peppermint Shrimp that I have prowling about the tank and all of a sudden, start in on one of the other Rock Flowers. At first I thought they were just going after some food in it's mouth, but they were actually tearing flesh off. They managed to dislodge the foot and kept tearing at it. Luckilly, I was able to net them both within 15 minutes, as they would not leave the RFA alone and I moved them to the sump. The RFA hung on for about a week, but did not make it. Is this a common thing with Peppermints? I still had a few small Aptaisa that I was hoping they would finish off, but I guess the pretty colors of the RFA's were too tempting. At least I figured it out before they took out the other 4 really pretty ones.
