rose bubble tip anemone eat my clown fish?

so i got 2 clowns yesterday, and i gothome from work and now only have 1? any ideas what might have happened... the only thing in my tank that could possibly eat it would be my rbta.... cant find his body in my tank... could he have just hidden?:-/

 

Very rare for BT to eat a clown, but it is possible. Does the BT look fatter??

 

Did you check behind the tank?

 

i watched the 2 new clowns last night till the lights shut off. came back out about an hour later with my flashlight to make sure these very little clowns hadn't got stuck in the powerhead or something. i noticed the rbta had moved a little (but notmuch) and was closed up, at this time i could only find one clown. my clowns were not hosting the rb yet, but when i got the rbta it had clowns that swam in and out of the 3 or 4 rbta's that were in the tank.... not sure what's going on....

 

i have checked the ground around the tank behind rock, my sump.. everywhere! i can not find this fish! so frustrating, if it died or something i really wish i could just find a fish body at minimum....

 

If one had died, the other could have tried to feed it to the anemone, maybe he was successful... Sorry to hear this.

 

Make sure to check all the tiny crevices in your rock. They can jam themselves into some amazing places.

 

i once had a really young clownfish (half an inch in size) that swam into my pump while it was off during feeding time. I missed it completly only noticed when the pumps turned on again and mr clown was chopped up

 

+1

When I turn my powerheads off during feeding my LawnMower Blenny chills inside the pump hahaha

 

If the fish was decent sized compared to the BTA, it should spit out a mass of whatever it couldn't digest.
