Hippoherder Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Just throwing this out there to see if anyone can see any obvious flaws. This is again for my dwarf seahorse project... I am going to take a 20 gallon tank (maybe larger) and guides siliconed that will allow me to drop a glass or acrylic sheet into the guide. I will have a solid sheet to completely block off one side from another and a sheet that is finely drilled to allow water circulation through the partitions for each guide. I will have the partitions spread to allow a 20 gallon tank to be separated into 2x 5-gallon sections and 1x 10-gallon section. This will allow me to have the stability of a larger water volume while being able to confine the herd to the appropriate area for feeding concentration. When the herd is large enough I an remove a partition completely an double the herds space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayba Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 (edited) Sounds like a good plan, as long as your guides are snug so that little babies can't scoot in between. I have been in a bind and used the the bought ones, and little plecos get stuck between the glass and the divider and perish. Your little bit of pre planning sounds like a good way to go. If it's a rimless tank it will work perfectly. It's the top rim that that can throw a wrench into your plans.
