i have seen mulitudes of dividers on the net, such as.. http://www.arcatapet.com/category.cfm?catnum=181 but what i would do and prob is the cheepiest.. go to wal-mart or a craft store.. get some nedele work backing and go to a store like staples get 2 plastic folder side strips.. then Place plastic channel against glass, below frame of aquarium Spread stainless steel clip over frame of aquarium until it holds the channel firmly against the glass Repeat by clipping other channel against glass on opposite side of aquarium Slide plastic "Flo-Through" plate into position in .. poof one cheep good looking divider.. at 1/3 the cost hope this helps ya L)) [b*************** ]MERRY X-Mas To All ! ************ :ml: :ml: :ml: :ml: :ml: :ml: :ml: :ml:
