Do you have any other fish or something that could have eaten the lobster? You said you had a big trigger so I'm just wondering.

I cant think of anything else tht would eat the lobster... Yes my trigger is big but it never messed with my shrimps nor snails so i dnt think it would eat the lobster which was bigger than my shrimp... I have no clue where it is

Puffers don't release toxic mucus. Some boxfish can do that, but not puffers. Their poison is in their flesh and cannot be released as a defense mechanism like the boxfish can.



Yeah, he digs tunnels in the sand. He then lives in these tunnels.
It was torn open so the tank water was exposed to toxin in its flesh

@merlberg don't you have a sfe?

Yes I do have one.. N i knw ur going to say it could of eaten it right? Which i pray it did but ive never seen it eat live food and it always left my shrimps alone so i tossed the idea of him eating the lobster away. And i still have 1 more shrimp left. Idk what to think now lol i think im going crazy thinking too much about this n hoping no more fish dies [emoji85]. Im scares to put my other qt fish in now because of this

Wow really?!!! Omg thts horrible. Ive heard stories of sfe doing tht and now Im starting to think when my fish goes missing like recently my flame angel maybe its my sfe -_-. When i feed the tank because it cant see it does at times try to go for my fish but once it realizes its a live fish it moves quickly.

Have you seen it killed the fish? And as far as my lobster goes i have never seen tht thing besides the time i put it in lol i hope the sfe ate it. I havent lost any fish til yesterday and it wasnt even my smallest fish smh. Good luck trying to get the lobster out and sry about your loss :/.
