So was this the fish that already died?

Lol...kinda what I was thinking too.

Yes, that was the dead fish. I guess it shot behind the rock work when I got him off the powerhead and floated back out with the water movement. This Grande is HUGE but I have never seen it snap shut whenever I'm feeding so I guess this guy settled down on top and it closed.

Funny, but none of the other fish will get too close to that Grande now.
