Assassin snails are only supposed to bother a select few species of snails like pond snails, ramshorns, and malaysian trumpet snails. If my betta can't catch a shrimp, I seriously doubt a snail can catch it, even if it wanted to.

I have assassins and they have never bothered any shrimp that I am aware of. The down side to them is that they leave discarded shells all over the place.
