    4 days now and no sign of my cleaner shrimp??????

    he disappeared since Sunday.. i thought he molted but he just doesnt come out and its been 4 days now. i don't have many hiding spots so he shouldn't be able to hide that good. Plus if he happened to die i cant find the body or any remains or ANYTHING of him.

    did he got out of the tank? he got eaten? what happened to it?

    i only have a yellow tang and two clown fish.. and my flame angel ( phoenix) past away yesterday of ich :( R.I.P

    He could still be hiding, I've heard they can hide for quite awhile and then just suddenly resurface.

    If he did die though I'd say your CUC probably took care of the body for you.

    Mine just disappeared too. Mine had his first clutch of eggs after his most recent molt and now he is just gone. I looked under all the rocks and he is gone. Looks like mine died and was fed to the anemone. :(
