My goldfish fry is getting bigger and she is a HUGE fin nipper!  Even after a big belly full of mysis shrimp she chases and bites.

Any ideas how I can make a divider for a 30 gallon tank?  Its a hagen euro rimless.  I have no idea how to measure the tank right but its about 17.5 high by 13.5 wide.

If you're a DIY'er, you can use plastic egg crate from fluorescent lighting and trim to fit.

If it's to separate actual fry, I've seen people using window screening with cut down vinyl frames (you can get all the makings at Rona or Home Depot).

Penn Plax also makes a tank divider that clips onto the tank, I have one for sale if you're interested (you might have to cut it down to fit your tank).

I have one you can borrow fits a 15g sounds like that is what you are discribing. Wow sounds like a little bully.

I didn't know they made them for larger tanks.  Mops.ca didn't have any but Pets and Ponds has one for $20 that is  16" x 17 so I hope I can cut it down.  Their AP test kit is a great price too.
