Here's the full load down as i never seen my Peacock Bass act this way and he's rather large.

I did a water change Tuesday night. Water straight from the hose with Prime Conditioner. I filled it a bit high this time so the fill tube from my return was not breaking the water. Woke up this morning wednesday and i noticed that so i lifted and put an object under the tube so it sits higher to break the water surface for added air because i noticed the Pbass was just sitting one corner at the surface of the water(led me to believe it was lacking oxygen). Now it's 3AM thursday morning. I went to the kitchen and noticed that my Pbass is just thrashing around the tank, i have never seen it act this way so can somebody advice? Also he's the only fish in the tank.
 
What size tank? Have you checked your water condtions, if so, how do they read? Does the bass look like his gills are working really hard, like moving rapidly? That would be a good indication of lack of oxygen.
