Tips on Dividing a Bow Front

[Smok3o3]

I need help figuring out how I can divide a 200 gallon bowfront. Doing it for my parents their tank has midas that just made babies again and in the tank there are many other fish that will eat those babies. two months ago they had babies too and not one survived in that tank now its a new batch. They dont want another tanks setup that will be very last resort because there are many tanks set up in the house already lol. Ne Ways..

I was thinking of course use suction cups for each side and I want to find a strong material that will hold up but also have very small holes so water circulation will be there but the screen small enough for the babies to just be divided to on side. Maybe using window screens? would that be aquarium safe?

Please help and thanks!!

Why not simply buy a fry breeder?

Thats the thing I have tanks but my mom does not any more tanks set up. I gotta listen to my momma no questions about that and she wants to divide the tank and I know there is a way so I am looking for what materials I can use...

get a large piece of foam like the example at this website no tools needed to hold it in place it gets no easier than this.

Nice i Might try that, only thing is it might be expensive.

well it might be a one time expense but it all depends on how much of a ghetto DIY look your parents would settle for.

You can also turn that foam divider into a filter by adding a couple airlift tubes
