    Is that basically a holding are so your fish don't fight when you first add a new one? Where did you get the egg crate?

    Good idea.

    Wow, really good idea! I tried one time, unsuccessfully, to divide my 150 in half with egg crate to keep my purple tang from attacking a new addition. It was pretty much impossible to close up all the holes around the LR and no matter how small, the purple kept finding his way through them.

    Let us know how it works.

    Thanks everyone, The suction cups where the trickiest things ever to do! It was definitely a fun 20 minute project thats for sure. And not to costly.

    The eggcrate was from Lowes. I did take pictures with my phone as it progressed Ill throw them up here later.
