Last night 3:30 AM my wolf fish started moving, it jumped twice and hit the aquarium hood. This morning i found that its whole set of upper teeth had lost and serious lip injury, will the teeth grow back, how long will it take, and how to prevent it from hitting aquarium hood next time, reduce water level? I didn't even sleep well last night cuz that BOOM BOOM BOOM sound!!
 
They should grow back, how long I don't now though. Mine used to do that but it was due to no lights on the tank and the room was completely dark, I added a "night light" and now he's fine. Could be hard to figure out the problem though, definitely lower the water level for now though.

that is so true, when i turn on the light it stopped, when the room was very dark it kept hitting the hood.

Yea my 3 main tanks are in my basement with no windows so I stretch a little 18" strip light between two of the tanks and it provides adequate light for them to maneuver but it's not overwhelming either.

I wonder if that is my aro's problem.

arowanna jump in nature to hunt food such as insects and birds. Maybe u should try with lights on at night, but it bothers u sleep and cost electricity.
My wolf fish lost its upper teeth and not just that!! It also lost its lip.
