It's well known that terrestrial plant lipids can cause heart and liver issues in fish akin to trans fats being problematic in humans. It's why you want to see all kinds of fish and marine-sourced plants listed in fish food ingredients and not garlic.

Terrestrial and fish oils affect phospholipid fatty acid composition, development of cardiac lesions, phospholipase activity and eicosanoid production in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).

Influence of dietary lipid composition on cardiac pathology in farmed Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L
Journal of Fish Diseases.
Yes I'm aware that all of these are salmon, because it's one of the most-studied species in aquaculture. But I'm going to take the precaution of assuming it's probably bad for other fish as well.
This is also the last I'm going to say on it in this thread.
