I hope this isnt too stupid of a question but here i go. If a red bug is like a copiapod would a manderan gobey eat them? would a yellow tang eat the little snail type things like the one little star i saw but was eaten rather quickly? what are there if any fish that eat these things or what are their predators? I have not seen anything resempling any of these but would like to know the predators. I have 2 cleaner 1 fire and 3 pepermint shrimps any of them eat the bugs? will make sure i dip incomming and outgoing frags
i am buying jerry's tank as a isolation area.

And the quick answer is that red bugs will not be eaten by mandarin gobies. Though some wrasses and perhaps clown gobies might eat them. And yellow tangs normally don't eat snails, they are primarily vegetarian.
