Trachyphyllia ate my narsissus snail?!

[mycograham]

Last night I noticed something in my green Trachyphyllia’s mouth, almost like it was having a hard time keeping it closed. Next thing I noticed was my narsissus snail was in its mouth! (See pic, sorry it’s kinda blurry) Anyone else had this happen? Fo you think it’s bad for the coral to have a shell inside of it? It has not spit it out yet as I am writing this the next morning. Any input is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Usually if my scolys eat a snail then the shell gets spit up. However, in a case where I notice a shell that appears stuck but is visible I try to remove it with tweezers since it’s a choking hazard for the coral :)

Well.. that explains that. Haha. It turns out it was one of my cerith snails. And looks like it became lunch. Trachyphyllia 1, cerith snail 0.
