    Default How to DIY "Divider" for 55 gallon tank ( 2 Breeding Pairs )

    Guys, I googled before posting this here. I want to house 2 pairs of Discus in a 55gallon tank separating them with a Divider. A Light diffusor is the recommended DIY divider, but I don't want the two pairs to see each other.

    Does anyone here have suggestions on how to separate two pairs in a 55gallon tank ? - Thank you !

    Sanjay...many here have used poret foam as a tank divider with success. I've used plexiglass before which was colored light blue built inside and thin foam strips to snug edges closed.
    I would personally shoot for the poret foam.

    Big +1 to Poret.

    If you don't want a hunk of foam in the tank, you could blast some plexiglass with Krylon Fusion and wedge it with a couple suction cups on the glass.
