Cr*p, Michael
 Throw in some new carbon to soak up any toxins the cucumber might have expelled, along with a few large water changes. Change the carbon in a day or two so it doesn't leach back anything it soaked up.

What do you think was the cause of the deaths? Was it because the cucumber died and released the toxins from a powerhead mishap? Glad evrything didn't crash but a 4yr old fish is a heck of a loss, sorry.

Cucumber horror stories are unfortunately not that rare. Hope your tank recovers. One big reason why I personally stay away from cucumbers.
