Aggressive Shrimp

[MrWolf]

Hi,

I've posted that story on another forum and also shared it to few of my LFS. Most of them didn't believe me.
I have a 65 gallon with 2 clownfish and 2 chromis.
My CUC was:
15 Trochus Snails
12 Cerith Snails
15 Red-Legged Hermit Crab
1 Emerald crab
1 Conch
1 Tuxedo Urchin
3 Skunk Cleaner Shrimp
I also have a Feather Duster Worm.

Before I added my Feather Duster, my shrimp eaten 9 hermits. Most of people I was speaking to told me the Shrimp Can’t Attack hermit, they've should fight for a shell and the looser became a meal for a shrimp. but I saw one alive in my shrimp mouth.

When I bough my Feather Duster Worm, he was really beautiful. but now, his crown miss many of his fin. I saw one of my shrimp goes rampage on him and also eat the tube of the worm when he hides.

what should I do? should I get ride off my shrimp or is it normal for a shrimp to act crazy like this?

Thanks

Lol :D
but I would prefer they stay alive.
if I can't find any solution, I think I'll just bring them to my LFS.

at my LFS, they told me to not feed them. they say, if I feed them, they won't do their job and eat the left over stuff.
but I decided to feed them anyway because I prefer they eat more food instead of more livestock.
but it's like they always want more, and more.
