Keyhole Limpet and Tunicates?

I just wanted to here from the SW veterans at RC concerning Keyhole Limpets and predation upon Tunicates.

Is this a possibility? I have a Keyhole Limpet that Hitched on my TBS liverock. I've noticed the Tunicates on one rock, are less abundant than before. The Limpet has been spotted on that particular rock more than once. I thought this one might be an algae grazer. Here's a picture from TBS site.

I am no SW expert, but I would guess your tunicates are starving. They are filter feeders and if you don't target feed them I think they will perish.
