I only see my one catfish a few times a week. Still not sure where he hides out as theyre arent really any caves in my tank. I lost 4 Black Neon Tetras to some Ich a while back but I never found those either... So yeah, fish disappear sometimes. Its weird but Ive seen it many time.

I found my missing goldfish two years later behind my dresser. 
I felt real bad...

Saw this string and was not going to post but can't help it LOL.
I've lost several Kuhli loaches for easily over a year. Then when the wild hair of change grew and I drained the tank to really stir things up cleaning the gravel found two huge ones living under the UG filter plates.
Panda Cory's that for weeks at feeding time I see only three consistently then one night there are five eating algae pellets.
I ordered a dozen baby albino plecos placing them in a planted 20g long, I lost four. Found one dead in a cave made of petrified wood pieces but never saw the other three. These were approx. 1/2 - 3/4" arriving from the seller. After a month in quarantine I removed the remaining eight and divided them into three tanks.
A couple of weeks after that I ordered six gold Dojo loaches and while prepping the 20g quarantine I found the remaining lost three plecos in the HOB I use to filter that tank. They must have swam up the discharge into the filter.
I've lost I don't know how many pre-dime angels in planted aquariums only to see the fish count change after a WC/plant trim.
Had Briggs snails crawl 1/2 way across the room away from the tanks too finding them in a bubble puddle the next morning.
And, like you had fish abducted by aliens never to be seen again.
Somehow it just happens.
Did you really? Didnt it smell? How did it get there? Cat perhaps?I found my missing goldfish two years later behind my dresser.

I guess it jumped. The cat wouldn't have been able to get up to that tank and no it didn't smell. I should have took a picture I was so proud of it I showed everyone in my house.
