My canary wrasse really helped keep them in check. It jumped not too long ago and I have noticed them increasing in numbers again.

Check your snails too. I found them on most of mine and I've caught them before on new snail additions to my system.

Man sorry to here this. I just have had a go round with these and do all of the above clean your clams off everynight, check your snails and if you have room get yourself a wrasse. I did this and still lost one of my clams but within a week the snails where gone and I have not seen them again.
good luck
I added a Melanurus Wrasse and it cleaned up the problem quickly and is a gret addition to the tank.

Hmm, sounds like they are a headache to deal with.
I will keep checking and removing them daily.
Thanks everyone for the advise.
