I had the same thing happen. I've had a watchman and a Randall's pistol shrimp together for over a year now. A while back the watchman went missing for over a month.
The pistol shrimp actually covered up the entrance cave and the watchman was buried alive it seemed. About a month to six weeks later (after I thought he was dead) he finally emerged. Real pale and skinny with no color.
Anyway, he's recovered quite well and a big portion of what he eats is pellets. I think they get quite a bit of the pods and bugs that live in the sand also.
Hang on for while.
