I have a colony of 6 large 5 inch feather dusters and I Know peppermint shrimp will destroy them and zoa colonys. Will Skunk Cleaner Shrimp go after them also?
 
A pep shrimp will only eat aiptasia. There might be one out of many that may go rogue but most will not harm corals. Cleaner shrimps are completely reef safe. I have both and they are well behaved.

Ive had many peppermint shrimp over the years, never has on harmed anything but aiptasia. Either they are false reports or there are very few that do.
 
I have both any only had tiny feather dusters but neither harmed any.
 
I have peppermints, cleaner (skunk), pistols, and fire shrimp and none go after any of my corals. My peppermints due keep all Aptasia out of my display tank and I have many in my sump so they definitely eat any that I get in my DT.
