Want to hear more but in the article it mentions internal complications not related to the tank or bass pros care.

Regardless of the fishes health.
It was too big for that tank.

Surprised no fish in the tank has made the leap out onto the floor. Pretty sure there was no mesh top on the tank at all water level wasn't very far below the top. An easy jump even for a trout with no fins.
