6-line nasty habit

Hello everyone!
I have a 29gal in wich lived 13 blue-leg hermits. Little by little they began disappearing.
One night, when I was down to 7, I solved the mystery. The six-lined wrasse in the tank picks them from their shells when they fall off the rock on their "backs". Has this happened to anyone else? Is this a normal occurrance?
Thanx for reading;

Ny sixline is not bothering anything, but my maroon clown won't leave snails tho. I've tried already 3 types of snails (Astraea Conehead, Trochus Snail, Turbo Snail). Out of around 70 only 7 is still in my tank. Now I am been using a Sally Lightfoot, Peppermint shrimp, horseshoe crab and limpets as cleaner crew.
