My Jaguar had a heart attack (for real I think)

i forgot the fish term but i think your fish has a spinal problem due to the glass it has banged.

it is common to agrressive flowerhorns .

worst case scenario is the fish will die.

sorry

I totally agree, "there is no suck thing as too much water changes". The more the better, only if your fish is used to huge waterchanges.
I do 85% to 90% weekly waterchanges on all my tanks w/ water conditioner of course.

I believe your fish rammed the tank so hard and broke its spine or something. Its common for large CA fish ramming tanks with full force. Hey, look at the bright side. You can get a male jag now with much, much better patterns and attitude. If you are in Vegas. Ill have some 4" males I could give you.

i agree that big water changes are okay, but weekly 85 to 90 percent changes seems ridiculous, just my opinion

I have a pen that looks like a snake its only about 8" long and one day I saw it picked it up and walked passed my tank with it and the fish started all flipping out and looking for places to hide so I tried it again the next day to see if my fish were reacting to the pens likeness to a real snake and again they flipped out I told my friend about it and he told me he had seen a video where a guy left his sweater ball python pattern next to his tank wih a jag in it the jag freaked out and when he woke up in the morning. So after that I stopped putting that pen near the tank
