disappearing damsels

[jferrier]

I have bought 4 small (1/2 inch) damsels in the last 2 months and one day they look good and the next day, poof they are gone! I have a true perc and firefish and a foxface and all have been w/ me for some time now. My list of suspects are as follows: large bta, mean looking brown crab, frogspawn. I don't know if frogspawn stings could get them or the bta for that matter, but I can't figure out what is happening to them. Any ideas?

How long have you had them? What are all of the parameters in your tank testing out to? What is your lighting schedule? Any damsel I have ever purchased is extremely shy for the first 2 weeks or so, and then after that they still don't trust the hand that feeds them. How long have they been missing?
