DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
In the last 24 hours, 7 of my neons have vanished.
I have quite a lot of Cherry Shrimp. The fish have been in under a week. Water chemistry is fine. Could they have died and all been completely digested? In between 24 and 30 hours??????? Somebody help

Re: DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
Did the shrimp get sucked up by the filter?

Re: DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
no. they can negotiate the filter. Looked under the rock. nothing. Is it possible that they have been devoured in 30 hours?

Re: DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
can we have more of a back story? Tank size, filter, tank mates, what it was like before the aliens abducted your fish? thats my theory anyway.

Re: DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
shrimp wouldn't be able to eat the fish bones so look for the bones

Re: DISASTER- 40 cherry shrimp and missing 7 neon tetras
RCS wouldn't be able to eat 7 neon tetras in 30 hours. Neons, however, are known for their ability to decompose so rapidly they "disappear".
How did you manage to lose all 7? Are there any other fish in the tank, not counting the invertebrates (snails and shrimp)?
