Aquarium Advice Newbie
I have a 4 gal evolve tank and I started the tank off with 1 corydoras habrosus, a piece of driftwood, some micro sword, some tall grass and a bushy plant (I don't know the names, picture attached) and 3 moss balls. I went to my local fish store and purchased 5 scarlet badis (1 male, 4 females, along with 3 red cherry shrimp. Over the next 3 days one of the scarlet badis females had died but only 2 of the other females were visible and the other two, the male and one female, were no where to be found. Also one of the RCS, which was berried, had disappeared as well. I searched the whole tank, took the plants out and everything and I could never find them. My LFS mentioned that maybe they went through the intake but yeah, the scarlet badis are small but not small enough to fit through and when I checked in the back chamber, no bodies or anything.
So the next day I bought another male and 3 more females, along with 3 more RCS. All six fish were visible until the next day (which was yesterday) and now today I checked the tank and all the RCS are visible but only 4 of the scarlet badis are present (1 male, 3 females), so that's 4 scarlet badis that have disappeared on me in 1 week.
Has anyone else had this problem? I really need help. I don't see any dead fish or anything. Or does anyone else have any suggestions of what could've happened? Thank you for any help!
