Does the loach appear skinny/underweight at all or have inflamed/sore looking gills or anus, and is its barbels/whiskers all in good condition too (not eroded or red looking etc)?

What about his symptoms before death though? Its still important to find out what killed him, as if it was something like internal parasites or fish tb he could have passed on the parasites/disease to the other fish in the tank.
