Default HELP! missing fish

Hey i have a biocube 14, and my 6 line is missing?! he was only about an 1 1/2? i cant find him anywhere usually he comes up to feed and swims around normally... I also have a clown fish which is still in the tank. My tank has a lid so i know he cant be a jumper.

Any thoughts?

How fast can a cleaner shrimp and 10 blue leg hemits go thru something? and wouldn't there still be remains? Ive pulled out all my rock also. My tank is a year old.

Probably in a rock, should come out in a week or so. If not he was a snack for your shrimp and hermits. Also even with a lid it never hurts to check you back compartments and the floor. Just my 2cents.

He is probably in the back chamber.
I had one living in my sump for months that went down my overflow before I saw him in there one day.
Shine a light down there as he is probably hiding under your pump of filters.

Yup have had many dive into the back before I got it blocked....be sure to check a few times before you give up fish can hide in there amazingly well
