Unhappy Rip gatf

Doing schoolwork halfway,just had the feeling to check on my ATFs and I see one of my GATF floating at the surface body at a 45degreee angle
What's the cause? tankmates are 3 Vatf(4 to 5") and another Gatf(5")

My condolence, does it have physical injuries? I noticed VATF are generally more aggressive than GATF. Could it be the cause?

Both of my gatf already had slight tail damage at the shop,the bigger one healed in a few days but the fins on the one that died stayed the same(no improvement).
What is the swimming pattern for GATF?maybe can give you guys some insight.Becaus eboth of them had diff. swimming patterns
Maybe this will be the 1st and last time I see any GATF in any lfs at my place

If it's eating well, should not be a problem.
