I am wondering if bumble bee snails or some crabs would eat these small stationary snails. They are smaller than a bb. I only now have them as my cc has all passed away from old age. Any thoughts?

I've read somewhere that yellow coris wrasse will eat them. Don't know if it's ever been proven though..Otherwise if you cut back on your feeding, they'll slowly die off.

pretty much nothing eats them ,,some wrasses pick at them but no real predator but YOU with a pair of stainless bone cutters,,1 by 1..
less food in tank and a water change will keep food from them..
