How big was the fish, which tank was it in, how established are you bristle worms/ hermits, what is your ALK and PH. If you have a good clean up crew and enough buffer, it probably won't matter.

Check your overflows if you have them. I am always finding fish in there. Always alive, but somehow they end up in there.

Dunno, sometimes fish just vanish. Aliens, killer pods or something.
