Default nitrates and lobster

Well I dont feed him to regularly, he gets the odd piece of mysis shrimp when the fish miss it. And I give him some live mussells 2 times a week, loves those. But about 2 months ago I brought home a mandarin fish he looked like he was doing fine he was fat and roaming around freely, and then after about a week he dissapeared for the whole day I knew something was up, and as soon as the halides went off and the moonlights came on there was the lobster rolling the mandarin fish around. I fished what was left of him out. then about a week ago I noticed I hadnt seen my blenny for a day. stil missing no body, no ammonia spikes, nothing. I think my lobster has developed a taste for fish. Doesnt hurt the corals at all though. If I loose a tang or clown, I will reconsider his existence in my tank.
