Wow, and just like that he's gone :-(

My new uber lights seem to have brought up the temperature too high (I don't have them hanging yet they are sitting on top of the tank), but here are my water readings:

temp 27.9C
Ammonia NH4 0.1
Nitrates, NO3 < 5
pH 8.38
KH 10
Salinity 1.027 (we are slowly fixing this)
Calcium 450
Phosphates PO4 < 0.03

So my temp was too high and my salinity was too high. Would those possibly be the cause of his demise? Everything else seems so happy in the tank...
