*cough* make a diary *cough*

also, maybe have a filter in the end section that is connected to a spray bar that is stuffed with filter floss to slow the flow for the bettas

and make sure you get divider that touch the lid mine manged to jump over one an there as only a gap just under a inch and got ripped to shredds by my apisto.

i'm having 8 sections in my 3ft - 36"

 

[The young one]

hmm, that means I could have 7 bettas, which means 4 new ones. Oh i don't know.

 

[kizno1]

you can have about 11 max just kepp a few spare divider and if you see one you like all you have to do is move the dividers little closer

i'm having an external filter on it so intake will be extra long spray bar running along 7 sections - then output on last section

using fluval 205

 

[The young one]

I'm going to be using a internal filter and I'll attatch a length of tube to it to act as a spray bar. I'm gunna go with 7 sections, I may need to get two internal filters?

 

[kizno1]

1 should be fine aslong as the lph rate is about 1500

 

[pippoodle]

a fluval 4+ would do fine in there - use a tube from a gravel vac/syphon - fits perfectly
seal the end with a lighter - or anything else to get it really hot - then squish it together - seals perfectly

 

[The young one]

I think the filter that I have now is for 60-170l tanks.

 

[kizno1]

do you know how many lph it is becaus they normail say it can fillter a bigger tank than it can.
