Please help me!Yesterday I added 5 young green neon tetras to my 10 gallon s.a. tetra tank. There are 5 full grown glowlight tetras and 2 full grown neons already there. Last night I gave the greens a 3 hour drip acclimation then added them to the tank and kept the lights off. This morning I turned the lights on and went to work. When I came home 1 green is missing, and the other was seriously injured(I had to preform euthanasia). The largest one seems OK but the other 2 look stressed.. my water parameters are pristine and the P.H. is 6.5. Is it possible they were bullied by the larger fish? I thought all tetras were peaceful community fish. None of the fish show any signs of disease. Any thoughts or advice would be highly appreciated.
 
Check the filter box, I had one go missing too and found it there a couple days later..

My filter intake is covered with a sponge because I plan on getting Cherry shrimp.. I still can't find it. Thanks for your reply :)
