I bought 4 cleaner shrimps awhile back. After a few days 3 went missing. Never found any traces of them. The sole survivor lived for about 2 months but it too went missing this weekend. I searched and searched and finally found a piece of its shell underneath some rocks in the back corner.

I have a feeling its the trigger fish. I do have 2 clowns, yellow tang, blue tang, 6 line wrasse, and a damselfish as well.

it's probably the trigger...

+ 3 on the trigger. Do you have other inverts? If I rembe right inverts have a lower tolerance for copper. Not saying thats goin on with you but it's a possibility anyways.
