Do Neons Eat Dead Neons?

[adam918]

Hi,

I have a small tank with 6 Neon tetra's in, one has now disappeared!! looked everywhere but cant find it, would the other neons have ate it?
Had the neons for well over a year with no issues any idea's??

regards

The neon probably died, and the others consumed it, so yes . They do eat other dead neons
