I got 8 Amano shrimp the other day. I took them out of the shipping box and put them in the tank. I left the lights off the rest of that day to try to let them rest.
I saw one hiding in the Wisteria the next day. Since then, I haven't laid eyes on one. I checked the floor around the tank to see of they'd found a way out and I can't find any on the outside. There's nothing else in there big enough to eat them.
Are these things usually that secretive? Noctournal?
Should I try dynomiting the tank to stun them to the surface?
Would 2 sticks be enough? 
If they're still hiding in the plants (and there's a lot of places to hide), I figure in about 6 or 8 weeks, they'll come out about 6" long and say "Okay, boys, we're takin' ovah!"
