2 peppermmint shrimp died?

[ppht]

I have added 2 bristle stars, 4 sea cucumbers, blue hermits, turbo snails, 1 tiger goby, 2 anenome's and 2 peppermint shrimp.
Both peppermint shrimp seemed to have died. 1 I have seen his body untouched all flacid. The other I never saw again. Everything else in the tank is doing well. My question is are peppermint shrimp fragile or is this another sign? I do have a couple manits shrimp in the tank. Would the go for the peppermint shrimp before other species?

they might have molted and what you see is the old exoskeleton

Peppermint shrimp tend to be nocturnal. I added 4 a month ago and have not seen one since. Not one, ever! They're the Houdini's of our fishtanks.

I hope thats the case. The first couple of days I was seeing them hang out on rocks. Then I would catch them with the flashlight at night. I'll keep looking!! Thanks

I had two, then added a BTA which one tried to steal food and went bye bye. The mantis shrimp (Bam-bam) decided he had enough of the other one. Oh LOL your talking about pep shirmp...I'm talking about my camel shrimp...LOL...too early for me.
