    Won't adding driftwood to an arowana tank increase the risk of injury, especially when they are full grown?

    Most Arowana injuries happen from the trying jump out and bash their heads on bracing
    Providing there are not sharp pieces/ edges sticking out and no fish chasing her around some solid wood pieces are great and no problem

    Adding wood should not be a problem as arowana dwells at the top of the tank mostly. Also like Marias said , I found that it's when feeding comes they tend to jump up from us moving on top and they getting a fright or just eager to get the food before we place it in tank. The tank has glass sliders on top that is also flush.

    There is also no other fish in the tank as I removed the 2 tinfoil barbs.
