Re: Splitting A Tank

You made the right decision. Smile

If you find you need to medicate a fish, you should always remove it from a shared tank to medicate it. Never medicate a fish unless you are sure that it needs medication. Best of luck to you and your new tank!

Not sure if you can get this make where you are but we use Penplax dividers. They are clear to start with but after a while they go opaque in colour so although your Bettas will know there is someone next door, they wont have a clear view of each other.

Good luck with your tank and set up and keep us informed on how it all goes. Plus lots of pics of your Bettas when you get them thumbup

whatever type of divider you get i would take the time to silicon it in, the clips and suction cups methods only work as long as the plastic is still soft. a few weeks or months in warm water and plastic tends to get harder and not stick where you want it as well. is things are siliconed in there are no worried about things moving or shifting.

Vandraco aka Bronzecat mentioned that I should have more circulation. I do have a brand new air pump, could I use that?

Wouldn't hurt to put it in :D With an airstone attached.
