I introduced 5 Yamato shrimp to my planted 90gal tank the other day. Just
for fun mostly but for algae utility as well. In the tank are a few Surpae
tetras, cardinals, otto's, SAEs, and one medium angel. Oh and two smallish
clowns. Chemistry is fine, CO2 injection, pH 7.0, 75 degrees.
Shrimp scattered out of the bag, and are gone. Gone. I simply cannot find
one. Its been about 5 days and I've looked hard. My tank is well planted so
there are a million places they can go but still.
I'm beginning to suspect the clowns munched them straight away. I even
watched to see if they had full bellies and if they were hungry when I fed
the tank. Nothing conclusive either way.
Any thoughts folks? Are yamato's nocturnal?
