Missing snowflake

I do believe my brittle star is the guilty party, it's not a notorious green brittle star but just now I noticed I'm missing one of my snowflakes that was part of a pair and also one cleaner shrimp....something fishy's going on. I thought they were just hiding out in the rocks somewhere but after tearing apart half the rock work there's still no sign. Te tank is a 40b it's contents were a pair of snowflakes, a pair of cleaner shrimp, and several corals, and of course one black brittle star that's about 4 inches in diameter, the shrimps and clowns were all about 2 inches...
 
I would say check the floor and sump, I've found fish on both, but considering both are missing than maybe not. Good luck finding them!!!

For some odd reason when I first read that all I saw was "Good luck finding nemo!!!"

wow... long day... I think I am going to bed. hahaha
 
Hahahahah....I think nemo is out of luck this time, searched the floor in a 2-3 foot radius around the tank and nothing, strange though a cleaner shrimp and clown gone within a matter of hours, can a brittle star really eat that much that quick??
 
Check your pipes.

I have a friend that lost two peppermint shrimp. Only to find them in the second part of the overflow.
 
No overflow or sump, just a 40 breeder with a tune nano skimmer and a crap load of rock, I initially thought they were hiding til I fed them tis evening and neither of them came out to eat, maybe they are just both hiding and tomorrow they will be there but I looked pretty good...
