Re: Help/advice in Re-introducing 2 pairs back together



I doubt you'll ever get them back the way they were. If it were me, I'd
just put a divider in the tank. I use the "needlepoint canvas" from a local
crafts store. It is cheap and easy to cut to the right size. Make it a
little wider than the tank and you can bend it into an arc so that the
pressure holds it in place.
