Bristel worms are opitunistic hunters so I think there may have been something wrong with the snail that I saw maybe a hermit attacked it first.

I never liked hermits, so my tank only has astreas and ceriths. Its quite mysterious why only ceriths are dying lol. Astreas are active on the rock/glass everyday.
Hmm bristleworms might be the murderers. I'll try to spy on them tonight.
