sea hare vs pyramidellid

Hi,
I had some pyramidellids snails that killed most of my astrae and turbo snails. Then I brushed the remaining 3 turbo twice a week to remove the pyrams during several months.
I thought I didn't have pyrams anymore so I bought other snails and a sea hare (dolabella) to control the algea which are coming bigger and bigger.
I found that I still have some pyrams in my tank.
Question: are the pyramidellids snails can kill my lovely sea hare?:confused:
Note also, the pyrams don't seems to attack my maxima clam. I never see any on it or under it.
Thank you!
 
pyrams are usually species specific, meaning they eat only one thing and everything else should be fine. i have never heard of any that go after sea hares, so i think you should be fine just watch out for the power heads. :)
 
OK, thank you very much! This explain why my clam doesn't get attack;)
My powerheads are stream tunze and apparently they are safer than seio for exemple, but I always check just in case.
