Flowerhorn won’t stop flashing

If your burning them in your room that's probably not doing your tank any favours do you ever notice a oily sheen on the surface of the water when looking up at it. Also I would be careful of a heater guard I had to remove mine as eddie took a big chunk from his head swimming into it.

Ouch!

What I did in my adult midas tank was add some extra suction cups to my Eheim heater. Big boy can hammer it as much as he wants, it never results in glass on glass warfare, and he doesn't harm himself when he gets in a mood.

Yea when it’s 2 in the morning and all you can hear is the clinking sound driving you crazy. He does it nonstop

Were you able to locate any essential oils in the water?

Good to hear.

Nonetheless, stop burning the oil candles and do extra water replacements for a while. That may stop flashing.
 
They're bad for humans so I'd say they'd be bad for fish too.
