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

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.
