Fishy water smell= dead fish?

ER9 · November 11th, 2008

i bought a bristlenose a week ago. saw him on the first and second day but havn't seen him since. tonight i noticed my aquarium water smells a little fishy rather than that algae smell. could this mean my bristlenose is dead somewhrer in the tank? i really hate to go pulling things apart looking for him unless he for sure is dead.
