I'm not there but I got a call from my wife saying the tank is cloudy and there are red tentical pieces in the tank and can't find my RBTA. I get off work in 3 hours and plan on doing a water change and changing out my carbon. Is this what is refered to as melting or would a coral banded shrimp be capable of ripping apart a RBTA (my wife's theory)?

I'm kinda nervous to see how bad this really is. I've been gone since 11am and everything looked great when I left.
