Check inside the filter?
Also, where is the filter now? Its got to stay wet in tank water otherwise the bacteria will die.
I think i mentioned on another thread that changing things around too often means the fish wont settle down. This means, every time you change the girls tank you are upsetting the pecking order again, which will lead to more bullying:(

no, the only things im changing is the heater and filter, im movign the heater nearer to the right of the tank so the plugs not so stretched and im moving the filter to the other side of the tank so there close to the plug. Im not changing the set up as the girls have onyl just settled. I took them out to be careful as i didnt want to burn any of them on the heater and i wanted to do a head count as i do now and again. I cant find her, ive looked and looked! Will have another look now but im scared incase shes not found

I emptied the filter, shes not there. I searched every plant/cave and everything in the tank shes not there, i checked the whole floor of the tank shes not there ither, i checked everywhere around the tank and shes not there A few days ago the fishw ere all looking ill and unwell, maybe she died and her body rotted causing the other fish to feel ill? Im so upset that shes gone?

Check the floor:( They can and will jump.
Also, even by removing them and moving the filter you are changing things. They shouldn't get burnt by the heater as you should turn the heater off and let it cool in the tank before touching it:)

she might have died naturally and the others would have disposed off her. Dont beat yourself up accidents happen. I lost one of my girls and she had got in the tiniest space inside an ornament and couldnt get out
