My slug I had for the algae died last night, the cleaner shrimp are eating it. Should I fish out the slug’s body or let nature take its corpse?

If really depends on the effectiveness of your cleaning crew and size of your tank. When a snail kicks the bucket the scavengers in my tank usually have it polished off within a few hours.

If it's still mainly there after a day I'd probably remove the corpse.
