stevie b Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 My daughter has a 14 gal. Oceanic biocube that's been up and running since mid April. Everytime she visits me for the weekend, upon returning home she finds that another fish has "disappeared". To date, she has "lost" a Banggai, a green banded goby, and most recently a 6 line Wrasse. She has checked the filter and pump wells, and of course her carpet (even though her tank is covered) and surronding areas; nothing found. All that's left in her tank is a Banggai, some snails, a crab, and a RBA. Any ideas on what's happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoobtoSalt Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 I would lean towards the carpet. Is it a maxi? They have been known to be fish eaters, could also be the crab depending on which type it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C0lin Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Do RBTA's eat shrimp too? My small peppermint shrimp's gone missing and there aren't any predators in the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Do RBTA's eat shrimp too? My small peppermint shrimp's gone missing and there aren't any predators in the tank. I wish they would. It used to irritate me when the shrimp would steal food out of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
