Pep shrimp question. Will they eat my curley cue?

[noahm]

Just wondered if the pep shrimp in part 2 will eat my curley cue(s) and/or other tiny nems?

I have one cc about 1 1/4" tall/wide and a handful of smaller ones as well as a handful of some other tiny species w/purplish variegation and flat ray orientation. I really enjoy the little stuff and don't want to lose it.

Nope!


and it is a bead anemone I believe...not a typical curley cue....is a common name..

This guy is the larger one. pic from your website. thanks for the pep info

This is one of the smaller type. Very flat ray orientation and purplish striations and hue.

The other lsmall type looks like a tiny sebae (sorry, no pic). That is the bead correct?

Well neither one of those is a bead anemone.....beads have more color......

Yeah, it looks like I got the 'curley cue' name from the first pic on your critters slideshow. The ones listed as CC on the slideshow(and the one I have) I think are actually the Aiptasia tagetes NON-PEST West Atlantic Aiptasia. the other ones may be Turtle-grass nems, or who knows what.
