Could've been either fish. I had a 2" super-red longfin Ancistrus get eaten by a (at the time) 3.5" asian bumblebee cat, this species does not have a very large mouth either.

The green phantoms that you're thinking about are like the blue phantom that I have. I've read and talked to the lfs where I got mine and understand they will grow fairly slow. Unless you plan to provide some coverage or get a larger phantom, you may end up with the same result. My two plecos are about 3" and are relatively "safe" while the Lei is only about 4.5-5". I'm keeping an eye on things and hoping they grow to a decent size compared to the aro.
They do tend to hang out under the large drifwoods that I have though and are just ignored now...

Larger tank could of stressed him out being so small and after death was deemed as food by your larger fish. Same happened to my phantom green.
