we started out w/ 6, which was whittled down to 2, then bought 3 more to make "the fab 5" and now we're down to 4. wtf! seriously, our tank isn't that big! we have absolutely no predators in the tank --- no more lobster, no predatory crabs, not even a single bristle worm! NONE! i'm not sure where the chromis are going, but there's no sign of the 5th wheel anywhere + no carcass in sight.
UPDATE:
not long after i noticed the fab 5 dwindle down to only 4 i found chromis no. 5 swimming around in the sump when i was topping off water! how he got in there i don't know, but am very thankful he's still alive and kicking. caught him + put him back into the display tank that same day! yay for the fab 5!

i also had some dissapearing chromis until i found a HUGE pistol shrimp in a cave that was munching on them... he also killed off a bunch of firefish gobies... i thought it was a mantis until i took him out...
