are you sure no chemicals or toxins have entered the water? if fish are irritated by something then they will try and leave the water,
are they gasping at all and do their gills look ok?

Do a 30% water change and see if they stop doing it,

Hi, i havent seen my fish jumping as much, but however, the fish has been hanging around on the back and not moving just sitting behind the heater. Whilst i have seen it behind the heater, i have noticed my male has been close behind my female, even though he is alot smaller, he doesnt move away from her and she seems extremly fat.

Do i have anything to be worrying about??

Thanks
