So I was reading a post that someone had vermited snails and I got to thinking, I know I've had them and I know that the population doesn't exist anymore. I can't place when they actually disappeared but my thought is that my Copperband took them out, I mean he did decimate my entire worm population (which I knew he would, I was hoping he'd eat them then decided that frozen food was the bomb, he didn't), and he was constantly perusing the rocks for food.


Does any one have a similar experience?

To me it makes sense, they naturally eat worms and aptasias (among other things). So they could be immune to its sting? I don't know, just trying to see if anyone had any thoughts
 
I definitely think that your idea could be valid. I have no experience though on it.
