I lost 2 shrimp a day apart after they molted. My Fire Shrimp is MIA and not in his usual spot, and I found my Cleaner Shrimp this morning being eaten by the Nassarius snails. My parameters are okay and everything else is doing fine. The only thing I can think of is I started to dose food grade H2O2 @ 1ml per 10g again to knock back some algae that was starting on the SB. I dosed a month ago without any deaths, but I don't recall if the shrimp molted during the time I was dosing it, so that might be a factor. In addition to the shrimp I lost one of my Turbo Snails.
I want to replace the shrimp, but I'm afraid of my Wrasse. My Melanarus never bothered with them, but they were in the tank before he was added.
