OK, I need some advice here. I have a 27 gallon cube set up as a nano reef tank. It has been going for aprox 8 months. Original stocking was(in order) a cuc, Percula Clown, peppermint shrimp, firefish, and Yellow Watchman Goby. These fish were stocked over a period of three months(one fish a month) after initial cycle. A month after Ywg added my firefish dissapears (yes I have a tight fitting cover). I waited a couple weeks to be sure it was gone for sure. After no sign of the firefish, I put in two small reef chromis. Two weeks later, my peppermint shrimp dissapears. Another two weeks goes by one of my chromis is gone, then another one three weeks later. At this point I am deffinately thinking Mantis. Right? Well, I try all the tricks to find and catch it. Traps, Empty covered bucket for live rock, freshwater soak, club soda over rocks. No mantis found. I didn't add any more fish after trying all that. No problems with my clown or my ywg, which have been ok since the beginning. So a week ago I try a sixline wrasse to go with my remaining fish. Today at feeding time----GONE. Is it at all possible my YWG or my clown could be doing this?
