Hi Priyanka,
 
Thanks for detail information. With your detail I can assure their ia serious problem is in your tank cause to stress, hole in head, reduce head and white poop (white strings) and those are – 
 
1) Water is not suitable for aquarium
2) Poor filtration
3) Bacteria Attack
4) Overfeeding
 
The hole in head, stress and rotten fin are because of bad water such as using borewell or high pH water. Such water leads to growing of bad bacteria. Bad bacteria are always harmful for Flowerhorn, and reason for stress, rotten fin n hole in head.
 
Over feeding always causing indigestion. Since because of bacteria in tank, that travel to Flowerhorns’ stomach where bacteria multiply them self. Thus your Flowerhorn do white poop. 
 
Hope this will guide you what is reason for several disease attacks for your Flowerhorn.
