I have lost 2 cleaner shrimp this week dont know where they went as in no dead parts in tank. 1 was today left and it was fine came home about 8 hours later and it was gone with no parts left in tank. Anyone have any ideas of what could be going on ?

i had 3 pepermint shrimp do something similair. in a matter of 2 days i never saw them again.
they were abotu 3 months old and 1 day 1 went missing figured he was hiding then the next day the other 2 went missing and i never saw them after that. moved all rock around about 5 days later didnt fid a thing. looked all around my tank(seeing if they fell out) pulled apart all my filters(was good for 2 reasons 1. needed cleaning. 2. to see if they got cought in there) i never found them. to this day i will never know. the only other fish in there was 2 clown fish.

they were my first things in there and it was sad cuz they were so cool

but thats all part of this learing experence i guess.
good luck hopfully they are just hiding

hmmm interesting.... depending on the size of your fish, I'm willing to bet the biggest one is the culprit lol
