    Folks,

    just 1 question: anyone knows will assassin snails attack shrimps?

    Healthy shrimps can easily move or jump away from snails, no way they can be caught by them.

    Its only the shrimps which are weak and dying (or already dead) that get eaten by the snails.

    Same for shrimplets, they can jump away quickly... only the dead ones get eaten by the snails.
