Peppermint Shrimp

[casper3t]

would my peppermint shrimp try to jump out of my tank? i don't have a canopy on it

[Fluff]

I don't think that will be a problem. I've never had any jumpers.

[revhtree]

Agree with fluff. Not a problem....

[stumpy]

I've seen 1 of my peppermints sitting on top of a powerhead a few times. He thinks hes the lion king.lol

My peppermint swims to the top at night. I have never had a problem with him jumping out(no cover).

I never really see my 2 peps swimming around the tank. They mostly glide from rock to rock and spend most of their time hiding in caves in my lr except when I feed the tank. They never go anywhere near the top of my tank.

...almost lost one while introducing it to the tank but no jumpers.

...he likes to clean my tang daily.

[Bearfan]

No problem with jumping.

I have caught mine "moonwalking" on the lid of my tank, boy do they ever get embarased when I drop the spotlight on them.

[swissfish]

mine are hiding constantly. I never ever see them out of the cave. Are mine just litle chicken that hide all the time? I had them for about two weeks, are they just shy in the beginning?

[quarryshark]

are they just shy in the beginning?

Most shrimp are shy for a week or 2.
Peps are not as forward as scarlet skunk cleaner, but should show themselves eventually.
Give em a little time.
