so i woke up this morning and when i looked into my tank one of my acans was happily munching down a dwarf cerith snail lol. its very close to the front wall of my tank so i assume a snail fell off the wall into the acan. ive seen it happen before but previously the coral didnt try to envelope the snail. im not really concerned about it, i found it more funny and interesting than anything and i wanted to see if you guys have ever had your corals go on the hunt for snails

lol I have seen this a few times from my acans, they will eat anything that falls on them
 
Had a stomatella snail get knocked off the front glass yesterday when I was cleaning and it landed on an acan colony that was ready to eat. Boom! Disappeared down the throat. Not sure if it spit it out later, but couldn't believe it took it, shell and all.
