I have a 140 gallon planted tank and recently bought 18 Amano and 4 Cherry shrimp to help with algae control. Some of the shrimp were pretty small but others were good sized. Over the course of 2 weeks, they have all but disappeared. I saw one large Amano yesterday but can't find any others anymore. Not seeing bodies lying all over the place I have assumed that one (or more )of my fish ate 'em. The fish all seem quite healthy. My numbers (ammonia, nitrite,etc) are fine. I have had 2 Amano shrimp living in the tank for months previously without a problem, so I doubt it is a tank problem.
Are any of the these fish known to eat shrimp?
-bala sharks, tiger barbs, yellow gourami, white molly, bushy nosed plecostomus, chinese algae eaters (large), rainbow guppies, orange tetra, otoclinus, clown loach (small and medium), danios
Thanks
