shrimp and crab problems

[saltyESQ]

I have a 24g aqua pod
as for critters I put in
1 emerald crab
2 fire blood shrimp
1 cleaner shrimp
1 emerald crab
3 sexy shrimp (dancing shrimp) the little red and white guys
1 peppermint shrimp

everything seemed fine, then my cleaner and one of my fireblood shrimp just vanished.....

have they been killed by other tank mates?

Ill bet anything the emerald crabs killed them....Emerald crabs are reef safe until they get hungry they they will kill and eat anything

I have heard shrimp are also sensitive to salinity changes. So if you are evaporating a lot of water on these hot days, make sure and add you top off slowly.
