I have a Aqueon Circulation Pump 700 in my 55 gallon. There are 3 Zebra Danios and 3 Platys in there. I fed them right before dinner and went back down to check on them 20 minutes later and I found one of my danios laying on the sand cut up and it looks bad. I assume it swam right into the output where the propellor is. I put it in my quarintine tank but it doesn't look good.
I wonder if this happens a lot or if this is just a fluke.
 
Yea I got a couple free one time and they were fine. Until they fell asleep near the filter. They got sucked up and died. Yea it took me by surprise too.
