So my pepperment shrimp is gone?? Got 2 clowns and various lps/softies crabs emerald crab and blue knuckle are the biggest sooo what do u thnk happened perams are where they should be

How long has it been missing ? They love to hide, lucky to see mine once a week or longer. Did you acclimatize him real slow ?

I use to have 3 cleaner shrimps 1 peppermint
then over the course of a year the peppermint was gone then 2 cleaners...
i think sometimes is expected that ur tankmates will attack/eat them...
is like sticking 10 guys in a jail cell.. someone will fight and be injured or die..
lol

I see my cleaner shrimp all the time but the pepermint I get to see after lights out on a regular basis.otherwise they are hiding.

its been about 1 week mabey more since last sighting i also checked at night but no luck hes been in there about 3 months and was doing good. weird thing is also no body i know i got big bristle worms but that fast :P

I have added at least 4 peppermints and they have all vanished as well. :sad:

I put 3 in my tank and they went missing over a year.Then one day one popped his head to say hi.......only time I have seen any of they since it put them in.....it was a huge shock

peppermints dont like bright light, so are mostly nocturnal in our tanks.....

things disappearing is going around on a few boards now. maybe its the invasion of the body snatchers...:new-alie::smilecol::new-alie:
