Help! Anemone Eating Shrimp.

[dajcf]

I have a couple of flower/rock anemones that my peppermint shrimp have been picking at. Although I realize that flowers don't usually host, I was thinking about adding a couple of false percs in hopes that they might protect the anemones. If this is a bad idea let me know or if anyone has a better suggestion that would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.

Nothing hosts in a rock/flower anemone.

If you want to get rid of them, I'd trade you a frag for them. I have some aiptasia I need to eliminate.

That is what I orginally got them for and they have done a wonderful job in that respect. They have also eaten a number of the little orange balls that I had. I really didn't think they would mess the the flowers given the size, guess I missed that one. Last night was the first night, so I am going to give a little time and see what happens. If that doesn't work. I will get back with you about a trade. I realize that they won't usually host anything, but worse case senario I have a couple of new fish.
