Sunday morning, Banggai was still alone on 'his' side of the tank, but when I fed everyone, there were no issues and everyone ate well (mysis and brine shrimp). Went to bed with a happy tank.
Woke up this morning a dropped some floating pellets in the tank... saw the clown, all 3 chromis and damsel... but no cardinal! Looked until I knew I would be late for work. No luck.
Came home, and he's nowhere to be found! I've checked EVERYWHERE... he didn't go carpet diving (I have glass tops), isn't in the overflow (I have a sponge around the intake, plus, I looked everywhere) not in the wet/dry, not under/in/around any of the rocks (i picked them up, did the 360 turn and looked through them all). There are no pieces of him in the powerheads... I'm really at a loss- I have no idea what could have happened!
Could my CUC have eaten him overnight?? We're talking between 11:30 and 8 am. I have no other ideas what could have happened.
Water params were checked Sat and again today:
pH 8.2, temp 79-80, S.G. 1.025, Ammonia/Nitrite/Nitrate 0ppm
