Pistol Shrimp AWOL.

On 2-1-2024 I purchased a Tiger Pistol Shrimp, did a One Hour Drip, went to put it in a Floating Trap, all fixed up, to hold to the first molt. Well I swamped the Trap, and it disappeared into the rocks. I’m assuming it’s alive as no body. But, I haven’t seen the Substrate Moved, and no snapping, even late at night. Just want to know, what others have experienced with them. BTW, Years ago, I had one, that was very active and visible.

Mine is normally very active, in and out - making a mess. BUT, if my watchmen are spawning it tends to calm it down. Sounds weird I know

One of my Watchmen has moved to the left side of the Aquarium. So I think the Pistol Shrimp, is there. The other one is still in the center, it keeps moving a Peppermint Shrimp to its Cave. LOL. The Peppermint Shrimp, finally gave up, and has made its home there.
