divided tank

Hey there, I recently went through the process of dividing my ten gallon tank for my two bettas and I wanted to share with others that might want to go through the same process. WARNING: Do NOT try to divide any tank smaller than five gallons; this is NOT a suitable arrangement for ANY fish...

So I'm getting a new, 55 gallon, tank that I plan on dividing down the center. Frosted glass so they can't see each other of course lol. One side for each Betta since my 'one tank per room' idea isn't going well. I got the tank for free though which is a mega plus! I haven't had a tank this...

I noticed the other day that one of my boys seemed to have a float bladder issue, in addition to tail bitting, so I pulled him from his tank and placed him in a 1gallon hospital tank and procedded to treat him for constipation. The standard fast for 2-3 days, a bit of epson salt. Well on day 2 I...

I really hope that I am posting this right, this is my first post on a site like this. So currently I have 3 male betta fish in individual two gallon tanks (I now know that that is on the small side which is why I want bigger). I got a 10 gallon tank for Christmas. I plan to divide it 3 ways so...

Hello, I have had a 5.5 gal divided tank for my two bettas for about a year now. I have never had a problem before with my divided tank because while the divider was a clear mesh, the fish could only really see each others shadows.. My old divider became completely infested with algae so I had...

I have a 5 gallon tank and I would love to get another betta! I don't have too much room for another tank with a fish so I was wondering if I could divide my 5 gallon? Or would that be too small for the fish?

Hey, so I set up a 60 gallon tank last week. I am going to be housing 5 male bettas in it so I divided it with acrylic panels that I had my dad drill holes in. I used an established filter and so I moved my first boy in that night. I started noticing a few days ago that there is a film on top of...

I have a 5g cube set up with an azoo palm filter, plants, and divider almost ready for another fish to go in to live with my crowntail Lil Buddy. Only thing keeping me at the moment is my water is a little cloudy from my plant substrate and the heater I currently have is not strong enough. In a...

I have a 2.5 gallon tank at the moment with a delta tail betta named Billy. I was wondering If I could get another betta and put it in 5 gallons with him with it divided. Maybe I could stretch it a little to 6 gallons but still a maybe. I don't want to keep an unhappy betta so if you can please...

Here's my divided 6g tank. I was a bit dubious about divided tanks but my little guys seem to love it! :) It is filtered and heated.

Hey guys. I'm about to divide my betta so I can rescue another betta, but I'm curious to hear what every body recommends for dividers. I was thinking the craft mesh that you can make tunnels out of becuase I have a bunch in my house. Anybody have recommendations?

I'm about to upgrade 2 of my guys from a 5 gallon and a 1.5 gallon to a divided 10 gallon. I've never had a divided tank before so I have some questions. I'll be making a DIY divider with craft mesh and report cover spines attached to the tank walls with aquarium sealant. Here are my...

I have one betta in my 10 gallon, and I am planning on dividing it soon and finding him a neighbor. I've been interested in female bettas for a while now, and I always feel sad they are so unpopular. I see a lot of cute ones lately at my LFS and I'd really like to take one home. My question...

Hi guys! I currently have a male DT and a Female VT in a 13 gallon tank divided so that the male has 3 gallons on his side and the female has the rest on her side. Now I did this because im really interested in starting a sorority on the female's side, now im wondering if this would be possible...

Usually the two in my divided 10g hide as soon as they see the camera come out, but today they were behaving :) They're so gorgeous, so I'm glad I finally got some decent photos of them. Their flamboyant finnage has actually got them the nickname "the glamor twins" around my house :) And they...

I have a divided 10 gallon tank with a male betta on one side and a female betta on the other side. I also have a 55 gallon community tank where I have 7 females. It's been difficult to keep the sorority fairly balanced in the big tank because I was advised that there needs to be more females in...

I'm relatively new to the fish keeping world, but so far so good with Tesla, who I've had for just about 2 months now. I'm starting to think about getting more fish, but I can't afford a bunch of expensive individual tanks and I really don't like the bow style tanks which seem to be the cheapest...

So I saw this tutorial online how to make a java moss wall.. well I was thinking about ya know if I ever got around to getting other tank and wanting it divided that maybe I could put java moss on the divider so they couldn't see eachother? Maybe get a loufa? (spealling not sure lol ) ya now...

Long story short I almost boiled my fish with a mini heater so I decided to get bigger tanks. Bought two ten gallon tanks with heaters but unfortunately no filters so whats the best filter I could get? Something with an easy current? Also It would be great to know a bit about cycling the tanks...

I own cats and fish. It's just kinda my thing. I have four bettas - two males, an adult female, and a 'baby betta' who is also (I'm almost positive) female. The males, Arthur and Merlin, are in a divided 20 gallon with a small colony of ghost shrimp and 3 ivory mystery snails. The females...
