how come 2 of your tanks have a gap between the dividers, and why is the other one so uneven? lol, i like your tanks, and im sure you have reason for both things, i was just curious. But beautiful tanks for sure!

I have double dividers in most of my tanks because it leaves room for the heaters and filters without taking space away from one fish, it also prevents them stressing too much as they can't see each other very well. It also helps if one happens to jump the divider, they land in the middle instead of on the other side with another fish. Some of the dividers are crooked right now because I don't use silicone to attach them, they are free standing so I can change the tanks whenever I need to.

Oh, and the uneven one is because the large side of that tank has some cardinal tetras in it, so they needed swimming room lol. I misread your question!
A new tank for one of my rescue females, Katara.
Her water is blue because it has medication in it, and I'd rather treat the whole tank than put her in a hospital tank. I put it in for preventative and also for anything that I might have missed.. And to help her tails grow back!
The tank looks soooo empty .. I am building up my plant collection, I'm going to stock it quite a lot, and then make it into a community tank once she's better.
(You can sort of see her on the top right :P)
Sasuke on the right in one of my community tanks.. :) (All the fish randomly disappeared when this photo was taken.. hmm..)
Ponyo, one of my females, cupped in the same tank as above.
I also have the picture of Kaida's tank on here somewhere... Can't find it anyways. :)

I cleaned out my 5 gallon tank that housed my sick betta yesterday after he passed. I divided it and put my other betta, Krycek (CT) in there on the left side, and his new friend that I bought today (HMDT), who is nameless at the moment, is on the right.
I also bought a Marimo moss ball for Krycek's side, and have a piece of pothos in the other side. I might add some more pothos and some other live plants later. My light is not a plant light (small LED) so I'm not sure what can and will grow in there.
I am hoping it will be cycled soon - half of the water in the tank is from my mom's well-established, cycled tank of a few years and from Krycek's previous home. I am so excited about having a divided tank! It is so pretty too! I made the divider from plastic mesh and report binder things, it has two layers of mesh so it's not very easy for them to see each other which is nice. Both of them really seem to like their new home so hopefully they will thrive. :)
