What is the Swell Peppermint Shrimp?

The Peppermint Shrimp has a captivating pattern of red and white stripes which resembles a peppermint which is where it gets its name from. It has a slim body with long, delicate antennae which allows them to smell and taste by sampling the chemicals in the water. They form a relationship with the corals and anemones as they are a form of pest control as they remove pests that can be detrimental to both of the corals and the anemones. Its beautiful appearance and pest control functionality make it perfect for both beginner and experienced marine aquarists
