Trust me, the fight can be really vicious! They usually go for the tail but if one them start to attck the other's eyes, then they can get pretty vengeful and whacked each other till blindness occurs.

noted, thank you all for information (: will update my friend asap

agreed,DW would not cause blindness.other than fighting ,it could due to the water quality ,which result late treatment that causes blindness

I think he meant the ST physically piercing itself on sharp edges of the DW when they chasing. I've seen my louhan did that n left itself a gaping hole in his head abt 6-7mm wide n 4-5mm deep. Heart pain sia
