So I noticed that 2 of my snails are gone shells are there but nothing in them, could one of my fish eat them, i have a Beauty, 2 clown fish, 2 damsels,lawnmow blenny, nightwatchman goby, strawberry, sea star, purple lobster, 2 cleaning shrimp, and some other snails.
 
Do you have any hermits? They tend to kill snails and take their shells. Lobsters have been known to snack on snails as well.
 
Oh yeah I also have 4 blue legged hermits, ok good to know. They are lil and I love there personalities, can they eat way bigger snails than them?
 
Oh yeah, a snail is just a sitting duck for hermits looking for a bigger home. Do you have any extra shells? Have you seen any snail shells with a hermit inside?
 
I have all kinds of shells and sizes in my tank. It's actually really funny one of the hermit that I have been trying to get his nasty shell but he would never switch it, he finally switched it and took this huge one that slows him down a lot all the others sit and switch them a lot.. Here are some pics
