I've only ever seen them go after things that can't defend them self's.

I am not 100% sure but I don't think the hermit had molted, he was fighting as hard as he could to keep the shrimp from getting him. I think the bigger they get the more aggresive they get to smalller critters. The hermit was about as small as you can get.
Now that you mention the snails I have gone through a pile of them in the last 6 months.
Too be honest I am not too sure how much blame can be placed on the shrimps. I am just tired of having my live stock killed and eaten, regardless of what is doing it. I just decided to remove anything and everything with claws.
