I’ve found some empty snail shells in my tank this week and I think my decorator crab is the culprit but I’m not sure. Do decorator crabs eat snails? Or other inverts? Can decorator crabs attack and eat each other?
 
Not really sure, but crabs will resort to anything to eat. If their isn't enough of a food source they will eat snails.

  • None! My inverts are model citizens. :-)
