fishy mystery

[red devil123]

I have a 6 gallon nano cube reef with nothing but some damsels and live sand and rock. after about a month and a half the damsels disappear???? i checked every inch of the tank and the filter, where did my fish go??

What about outside the tank? Like some jumper?

Possible mantis shrimp stowaway in the live rock?

where they ninja damsels?

Large bristle worms? nocturnal by nature.. so you can get a big one and not see it for monthes.

That would be my guess as well. OP sit by the tank at night when the lights are off. If you hear some popping or snapping noise you may have a mantis shrimp.
