Hello fellow reefers,

Ten days ago I added a cleaner shrimp to my 15g that already has a peppermint. Initially they were at each other over a cave in my tank but a few hours later they seemed fine. I didn’t see my peppermint then for two days ( he was always out at feeding time and lights out ) that was the last time I saw him, it’s now been a week and I’ve not seen him since. Is it likely me cleaner has killed him? Or could he still be hiding away somewhere?

Thanks in advance

Dom

Though they should coexist with little problem, 15 gallon is a little tight. Could be molting or hidden.
