there is no way having hot water in that sink for a few seconds or even a few minutes is going to create any noticeable temperature change in all that water. It takes quite a bit of energy to raise the temperature of water. Hot water in that sink would cool to the temperature of the rest of the water long before the other way around would occur.

I'm guessing this is an "event" type deal...In other words this is a sink that is set up by an aquarium pro service, for an extravagant party by people that have money to burn. I hope at least.
There are many knowledgeable fish keepers on this forum willing to help and give great advice...The advice is free; What you choose to do with it gives it value.

The prey/predator response has got to be terrifying for those fish every time someone turns on the water or pours something in the sink.....
