Engineering Gobie vs. Shrimp
 

Has anyone had a problem with an engineering gobie eating shrimp? All of my shrimp have disappeared and the only possible culprit is my eng. gobie. I could see 1 or 2 of them dieing and hiding behind the rockwork but not all of them.

All mine dissappeared as well, but I blamed it on my candy hogfish. Maybe it was them? What else do you have in the tank for fish?

Bi-color blenny and 2 clown fish. I doubt it is any of them.

I can't see that any of your fish would eat the shrimp. Do you have any anemones in the tank? Has anything else been going missing?
The other issue is the tank itself. Shrimp are quite fragile, so if things get out of whack, they would most likely be the first thing to die.

My engineer would readily eat whole large pieces of krill so it wouldn't surprise me if it did eat your shrimp. However I never tried keeping any shrimp with mine because of my other fish (lion, eel) so I don't know for sure.
