Ya, that's where I was going. Mine wouldn't eat if they relied on fish to miss anything :) I have to feed them or they'd be flipping snails.

Try throwing in shrimp pellets at night.

Seriously, what do you feed the shrimp? If they don't get enough food, they'll go hunting for things you'd prefer they didn't eat. I target feed mine with mysis, they don't eat their neighbours :)

Not as much as you gotta love the tang police...
especially when they advertise.
