What happened to the male clown and two Firefish?

Here is the story: I had a pair of tank bred percula clowns that I’ve had since I started my tank 8 months ago. They were already paired in the store and got along great. The male was adventurous and has been found in the overflow and sump several times before I covered it. He was always fine. One day I didn’t see him until yellow-headed goby was trying to taste his dead body (I was quite surprised and saddened). His body was torn up a bit, but I’m not sure if that was after he was dead or not. On a side note I had 2 fire fish die a few weeks earlier – one had his tail chewed on…then his dorsal fin was gone…then he was floating dead (over a period of 2-3 weeks). Then the other one just disappeared about a week later (no body found). I haven’t seen any predator at night and no signs of disease/other problems. Here
