icecool2 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I can't figure out what happened to my peppermint shrimp. I haven't seem him for a week. I put a chunk of raw shrimp in there for him hoping he'd come out like before, but no luck. I haven't torn the rock apart looking, but I've checked as best I could to find him. Do they uusally hide this long? Link to comment
TheUnfocusedOne Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 My take on that pic i always see floating around Link to comment
icecool2 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 The thought crossed my mind, but I really highly doubt it was a mantis. I've got a bunch of snails and hermits in there and they're all fine. The shrimp was in the tank for a couple weeks before it disappeared. I was pretty careful when i got my LR to do what I could to drive any hitchikers out. Link to comment
reeferman-chris Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 My peppermint shrimp hides during the day. Try enticing it with some food after dark. Chris Link to comment

Chris There is a chunk of shrimp just sitting in there waiting for him. Doesn't look like he's touched it. I'll try putting a piece further out and seeing if he goes for it. my post was a joke just so u knowdidnt sound like a mantis I know, but it was still a possibility that I explored Link to comment
masterbuilder Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Come over to my house and catch mine.... I hate the evil devil. I have tried for months to catch the food stealing basT@rd. Mine will rip open my ricordeas mouth to pull out anything I try to feed them. Please tell me how you got yours to disappear! Link to comment

masterbuilder Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Well hes probably hiding or hes dead. Hahaha...that pretty much covers it. Link to comment
icecool2 Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Well hes probably hiding or hes dead. Well, I kind of assumed as much Didn't know if there was some "It's the fifth moon phase of the seventh leap year and they go into hibernation for 135 hours" kind of thing. Link to comment
