    Default Dividing my 90 gal tank...

    I want to divide my 90g curved tank. I have a pair that Lay eggs and I want them to succeed. Can't find any tank dividers for 90g. Any ideas?

    I cut a piece of light diffuser that I bought from Home Depot to fit the width and height of my tank. It's not pretty but it does the job

    +1 on the light diffuser. I cut mine in half and reattached it with cable ties so it would fold and make it easier to get in and out.

    Do you mean a light cover?

    "Diffuser" is the exact stuff in the Lowes link above

    Ok looks like a light cover. Lowes link doesn't say diffuser. Sorry this is not a term I'm familiar with.

    I use an egg crate wrapped around with an
    screen from a window or screen door replacement, works great.

    I didn’t think of that! What a good idea. I used the egg crate with a polyester mat zipped tied to it.

    I think lowes and HD call it egg crate light cover. That’s how mine was labeled.
