Default Arowana injuries due to landscape

I am having doubts on whether drift woods or corals that form landscapes in the tank will cause injuries to my arowanas(comm), scratches on scales.
Anybody bros can give me any advise?

I guess it better to take out the drift wood.

If you are feeding feeders fish, most likely that the cause of injuring when chasing the feeder fish.

Do take out the drift wood.

to prevent further injury.

Do not put any of those landscape things will reduce the chances of injuries.

I would rather leave my aro by themselves.
I treasure my aro more than the tank decorations set-up.

They look fine to me since the driftwood is more to the side. Very nice aros you have!

TS> coral rocks are going to affect the pH & hardness of your water. Do take note.

I have driftwood at the tank base of my tank, I feel it looks better than a bare tank and it allows the smaller tankmates to hide from the arowana.
