I had a Red Fire Shrimp in my tank for about 7 months, then it disappeared without a trace. (I don't think it just molted because usually when they molt I see the traces of the old shell in the tank.) A month went by and I saw absolutely no signs of the shrimp.
I purchased another Red Fire Shrimp about one week ago, and now I believe something has attacked it. I saw a piece of it floating in the tank. (The floating piece contained meat, not just shell and the fish were going after it.)
Could the culprit be my small Emerald Crab, my fairly new Sand Sifting Star, or my Yellow Watchman Goby? Or something unknown?
The new shrimp that I added just a week ago was fairly large, not just a small specimen and I thought he would be safe.
