Sunshineshrimp Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 I bought a ten gallon tank with live plants about two weeks ago. I had five shrimp and one Betta. The tank is filtered and the Betta does not bother the shrimp at all but I haven’t seen one of my shrimp in days now. I haven’t seen a body and he wasn’t sucked into the filter. He was too large for the Betta to eat and she never bothered the shrimp anyway. Just confused. If he has died in the tank will he be eaten by the other shrimp? What should I do?

Valek Posted June 14, 2018 Report Share Posted June 14, 2018 Probably died and was eaten by the others, it happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickAus Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Is the tank cycled? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revaria Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 Shrimp like eating other deceased shrimp, so if one died the other shrimp most likely got to its body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
