I got an order of inverts from Florida, that was mostly snails. I think I have a Predator Snail, as two fish disappeared without a trace. Also some of my Larger Trochus Snails have been eaten. I’ve looked, including after the lights are out with Red and White Flashlight, but haven’t found it.
 
might have to get a camera and record the tank during lights out to at least have an idea of what you're dealing with. snail could definitely be the culprit, but perhaps a crab snuck in within one of the shells?

Care to share the vendor name?
 
Reef Cleaners, but this is really on me. 200 snails with four species. Should have checked closer, since I have a book that I’ve tagged the predator snails that live in Florida.
No, they've sent me carnivorous snails in the past as well... more than once :(
