    Soooo it's been a couple hours since I saw my mandarin...

    Could that red pistol shrimp have killed my fish? B/c I feel I've checked his usual hangouts.

    it's amazing how some fish can just disappear, I lost a 6line for 2 days in a tank with nothing, but sand and a power head. He kept appearing when I did not have time to catch him and when I did it was no where to be found. I latter found out they can dig and hide in the sand.
