Default Dead Peppermint Shrimp

I bought 5 peppermint shrimp 2 days ago in the attempt to control an outbreak of aptasia in my tank. I took alot of time to ensure they were climatized before putting them in the tank.

I use bioballs in my overflow to cut down on the water noise and found 3 of the shrimp this morning in the overflow down amongst the bioballs. I was only able to save one of them. I have never had any fish or shrimp in the past go into my overflow. It seems a little weird that 3 of the 5 shrimp would get into the overflow in one night.

Can anyone give my any insight on this..... thx

Jim
