So, what is the name of this particular peppermints shrimp that eats aptasia? Street name and/or scientific name.

I got 3 peppermint shrimp locally about 6 months ago, for about 8 weeks, they did a great job and I could not really find anymore aiptasia. However, after this time, I noticed they started to enjoy the food I was feeding the fish and now they will not eat aiptasia anymore, so it is starting to come back a bit. The shrimp are still in there, but I guess the aiptasia does not taste as good as the fish food

Pacific pep shrimp are a cleaner species but Carribean peps eat aptasia. If the lfs buys in LA 9 outta 10 times they are pacific, I get mine in florida so I know what they are but it is very seasonal.
