antifreeze coolant.(there were no problem)..
But now i noticed that all the coolant was gone..so

Might be a freeze plug leaking. Only way to know is crawl under it and get dirty looking for the leak. Check all the freeze plug locations and the water pump seal. I would also have the cooling system pressure tested after you fix the current leak.
