I have a turbo snail that has it's shell partly covered in small hydroids or
anemones. They look like miniature aiptasia but they are only about 1 mm
tall and are all white.

I don't see any others anywhere in my tank, but I have two peppermint shrimp
that may be eating them.

Are they likely to sting the snail? Is there any way to get rid of them
without killing the snail?

Leave them alive and admire this sample of Nature in your livingroom Wink
Good luck!
