I got 6 for 138 including shipping. I've seen them occasionally at night, but I've also seen a pepperment shrimp in the area, too. If this doesn't work, I might try it again without any peppermints. No updates other than the occasional sighting, but none expected yet.

They do consume aiptasia, but for obvious outbreaks, you woudl need a serious army of them which is $$$. A handful will not be able to comsume any significant amount.
