missing fish...

alright well one of my fish is nowhere to be found. Im guessing it has died, but im not sure. I have a lot of rocks in my tank since it is a reef, and i was wondering will i have to take everyrock out to find this fish? or will my critters and a few water changes take care of it?

I wouldn't take everything out unless it is necessary, meaning an increase in ammonia or nitrites. The best thing you can do is monitor those two and keep your fingers crossed however if the tank is well established, I doubt you will see any noticeable difference.

the fish was no more than 2.5", but you have to remember that i have a 30gal cube.

Thanks for the advise, i will keep a close look out for any spikes.

Yup I would test daily for the next week, just to be on the safe side.

in my brothers 55 gallon so far 2 fish have gone completely missing and never been found.. we're assuming the crabs or something took care of them and his ammonia never became a problem.
