Maybe slammed itself against the top of the tank? Hard to say with so little info.

I feel bad for you but why did u derail MY thread making fun of me about my fish and being mean? Seems like karma:)

Well, honestly i do not like the fact you were mean but i do wish you the best of luck with your arowana... And maybe it hit the side or lid to hard as stated...
