clean up crew and maroon clown

by **breaknrun911** » Sun Sep 20, 2009 1:55 pm

so i bought a pair of mated maroon clowns yesterday, they are about 2 inches in size i leave my house and 6hrs later i come home and one of them are missing. cant find it to save the life of me. my question is, having 2 peppermint shrim, 1 scarlet, a few blue legged hermits, and some sunshine snails. if and only if this fish died in the 6hrs do you think that the cleanup crew could have eaten the carcass and left the skeleton floating around? is it even possible to do that in 6hrs? wut do u all think could be other possibilites

have you fed the fish it might be hiding. It could of died in a coral and the coral ate the clown.

well i fed them wen i got them and they ate. and when i got home i fed some live brine shrimp and he was no where to be found. as far as coral goes all i have is xenia, nems, and some zoos i doubt that ate it

were they a pair theres a chance there 2 males

actually depending on how long you had them....................they could have came as two males but over time the larger will turn into a female - the second largest will be your male and if you had more the others would be unics {so to speak} if either the male or female leave the next in line size wise will take its place............pretty crazy fish ...............
