Sorry your fish died, and I hope you can pinpoint the cause so it doesn't happen again. If you don't know why they died, you can post with more info (tank stats, water parameters, inhabitants, etc.) and we'll see if we can help
It's an interesting tank, definitely not typical. If you'd like my advice, I would see if you can make the rockwork a little less symmetrical - it will look a lot more natural that way.

The one against the intake probably died first then got stuck. Check all of your water parameters closely, take to LFS if necessary.

moved the rocks around again today and took out the rio 1100. gna buy a spray bar tmoz and set it up so the pump is situated to the back left corner ( behing the rocks ) so you cant see it . and hopefully get some nice flow going . that doesnt blow everything around to much
