Long story short, a small dartfish disappeared last week and i looked as hard a possible to find it in between rock, in the sump ect ect. Just yesterday, i lost a new flame angle! i do not know what happened, do not know where it could have went. I also checked in between rocks and took apart my aquascaping. I honestly do not know where they went!! I also checked all around the tank for a suicide but could not find any bodies.

My only and final conclusion is that it died and overnight my ONE nassarius snail took care of it, is this possible, or is there someother place they went? Help.

I think it was probably the bristleworm population along with your nassarius snail and any crabs you might have in the tank took care of it for you. I doubt it was just the snail.

I agree with cloak- there are so many life forms, its doubtful it was just one.

Do they only eat flesh or the bones too because i cannot find the bones or the corpse of the dead fish. This is very strange for me. I only want to be reassured that i found a body, dead or alive i dont care right now.

Are you sure they are not held up in a rock somewhere? Dead, but held up.
