Are you fish starving?

Just a general question:

Does everyone's fish act as if their are starving?

My red firefish, banded goby, and scissortail goby all act like they are starving any time I feed them. I don't want to over feed but I don't want to starve them either. I feed every other day frozen brine and mysis in garlic "juice". I know the brine is not very nutritional but my coral banded shrimp loves it, and he never goes for the mysis.

Do I need to feed more often?

My three little fish go into a frenzy when I feed...I feed at the same time every other day. I feed a little...wait till they finish...then a little more. But when I am done, and put everything away, they are swimming around looking for more.

What's the deal?

Oh and on a side note, should dead snails be removed from the tank? And what kills snails? Found one ripped to pieces in my tank....urchins? Shrimp maybe? Never seen any of my inhabitants attack any snails so I was just wondering.

Thanks in advance!
