Missing fish

[kristi518]

In the past month, I have lost 2 fish. I lost an angel fish and yesterday I noticed that my firefish was missing. I don't know what has happened to them, I just can't find them anywhere. They were both extremely healthy and active and now they are gone. I think that something is killing them in my tank but all of my other fish are not aggressive. I only thing that I can think of would be my emerald crabs but they have plenty of things to eat in my tank. I have 125g tank with a 30g sump and my tank has been set up for over a year. I have had my firefish for almost a year and my angel for 6 months. Please help the only theory that I have is that they were the smallest fish in my tank and something is killing them. I would like to save my other fish before I lose them too. Also there is a 15 day gap between the angel going missing and the firefish. Please help!!!

Have you checked your floor really good (do you have a cat) Firefish are known jumpers...
ALSO, a fish could get sick, and the cuc should take care of it....have you taken apart any rockwork?

I checked the floor and I don't have any cats just dogs. If they got sick it was very sudden because I would see them one day and then not the next. I have not moved any of my rock because I have coral all over my tank. They were both good eaters and always swimming around the tank with my other fish.

HMMM....another mystery of the deep....I have emerald crabs in all 3 of my tanks and have NEVER had one eat a fish yet...NOT saying if they could they wouldn't though...I mean...I am sure some will....but fish are pretty quick...
