Sorry to hear about that, i got your email to webmaster, sometimes you just can't save them. There are some viral diseases which kill fish very fast, if something like this happens again I'd recommend quarantining that fish immediately to protect your other fish. Truth is though, better to move other fish to diff tanks and clean that one out.
