Hi there,
I'm new to keeping fish and have had seven Blue Danios for about 6 months.
I cleaned them out just over a week ago and all seven were there.
I've just noticed that there are now only four of them but no dead bodies!
Are they cannibals??
Thankfully I'm not an American so I don't think they've been abducted by aliens.
 
If you haven't checked your aquarium for quite some time, maybe it died by other causes. If you have other fish, they might've eaten the remains of the dead fish. I think blue danios eats small dead fish too but they don't harm themselves when they're alive.

You could also check the back of your filter and anywhere else! If no luck, maybe it's that :p
 
Good morning and welcome! I'd say your fish died and were either eaten by the other fish or sucked up by the filter. You really should be cleaning your tank more than once every six months. Once a week partial water changes and once a month good cleaning is about normal. BTW I'm American and I don't think they were abducted by aliens.
 
Check inside your filter if possible. They probably ate them sadly.
