I added a pearly Jawfish to my 20L tank 3 months ago. I've had one before in a much larger tank that I loved but met an untimely demise. The current Jawfish, Mike Hawk, co-existed with 10 sexy shrimp for 2 months but as I suspected he got big enough to eat them all and for-sure did. In my defense they did refuse to be caught and transferred to a 1.5 gallon nano.
2 weeks ago I added a small, but still bigger than Mike, Coral Banded Shrimp (Pocahontas) but yesterday I noted I hadn't seen her in a couple days and after a thorough inspection she has disappeared without a trace?
Is Mike, a known murderer, a shrimp ninja that's going to eat any cleaner-type shrimp no matter how big? Or, did Pocahontas just not make it and my cleanup crew ate her, shell and all. I have a very tightly-fitting screen of my own design on that tank so escape is impossible without an obvious rip in the nylon screen.
What do ya'll think? Murder or death by natural causes?
