Sounds like your 6-line knows...

Mine were in with both mature clowns and a yellow wrasse (they did grow up with them tho so I think that helps)

Your shrimp are hiding under your hammer coral. That's where mine hide. You will only see them
once in a while now :-)

I have a hard time believing the six line got them. I know it is possible but six lines have pretty small mouths, unlike most other wrasses. My six line can hardly put down a mysis shrimp.
