It could be his molt you see. After molting they tend to hind because there armor is weak. Also if tank is only 1 month old this could be to soon for stock.

check salinity, and not with a float meter. Get a refractometer if you don't have one

Did the corpse look like somethign ripped open the shrimp's back, and ate all his guts? If so, it is probably a molt. I had one die after 4 months, and it just looked all bloated and white--not at all like a molt.

My vote is that it molted as well.. it will probably show up in the next couple of days hungry as ever..
