Anyone ever hear anything like this?
no flatworms?

Nope. Nothing else obvious that I can think of. Slight cyano in the tank, but I don't think that would do it

That is unusual. I would be curious to hear if anyone else has witnessed something similar.

Herbivorous fish are like dogs while carnivorous fish are like cats. That being said... if you were gone for 2 weeks they could have died from loneliness.
