Hi,

Shrimp are great at hiding... but if he is MIA, your water quality may not be as "perfect" as you think, the shrimp are the first to go if water quality is off. To know if that could be an issue, we need the exact result numbers, not a declaration that all is perfect. There are critters that eat shrimp as well, so what else is in the tank?

Agreed, a good clean up crew will hide any evidence of death lol
