I've had a bunch of snails die in the past day or two and trying to figure out what's going on.
It's been about 2 days since adding 3 peppermint shrimp to my tank to tackle the aptasia. Peppermint shrimp won't attack snails will they? They were probably really hungry when I got them home and they've been munching on everything in the tank including the aptasia.
I also just treated the tank for flatworms using Flatworm Exit. I have some corals that are damaged from the toxins released from the flatworms but not sure if that would be a factor in the snail deaths.
I've caught one of the peppermint shrimp harassing a nassarius snail but it was too late to tell if the snail was already dead from something else before the shrimp got to it.
Any ideas?
