I had no idea wrasses liked eating inverts. How often do you feed them? I have a couple peppermints in my tank along with a couple wrasses and have never seen them harass my shrimps or other inverts

I feed the fish regularly (frozen mysis and pellets) and I have another, much larger, peppermint that lives fairly hidden in a rock and a cleaner and fire shrimp that are larger too that don't get harassed. I think this particular peppermint was just too small. I can't tell if the shrimp was dead already when he got a hold of it or not but I do know he kind of went after it, when it was added to the tank, a couple days before.
