Default Engineer goby missing!

So I bought a small Engineer goby last night to wake up to it completly gone, I turned off my power heads last night just in case cause it was so small and wake up this morning and its disapeared, I moved the rock looking for it but no sign of it. I had a small blue tang disapear aswell a month ago what on earth is eating it?

My tank has 2 clown fish and a yellow tang for fish.

Could it possibly be my GBTA?

Do you have an open top? Check your floor.

Nope checked floor and filter, nothing. Im begining to grow discouraged from buying any small fish. I think I have some LR from the bermuda triangle. I have a small bristle worm but I dont think they eat fish or could catch such fast fish anyways. My only idea would be my GBTA I doubt my hermit crabs could catch them eather.

Your live rock probably ate them. When they go to die they usually go right underneath rocks and burry in the sand, or right inside holes of the rock.

I bought a huge lot of dried live rock once, and found a 4" dried up Blue Tang in one of the pieces. I Pm'd the seller and he said that he never even had a blue tang... so who knows how long it had been in there.
