Yanagi Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Yes Auburn Aquarium sells IAL. Low on stock right now. Couldn't tell you the price of heating cord off the top of my head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNgo2006 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I have similar barracks to Zui with the sump in the back. As for glass dividers I used aquarium background cut to size and siliconed (selleys clear aquarium safe) it on each dividing glass piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lachie1998 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 what about this for heating? http://www.pet-shop.net.au/buy/hydorminiheater/Hydor_Mini_Heater_Aquarium_Heater_%287.5_watts%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephanieBell Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm sure I saw those on eBay for about 30 bucks! Have you used that site before? Seems really cheap. The only con with those is that the temp can't be adjusted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadoh Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 My big barracks is set up the same way with the sump at the back. I use the plastic covers of the file protectors with a small piece of plastic poster holder to clip it in place. Make sure to lower your water level to what you had. I had a few boys jumping between the gap of the divider and the lid into their neighbors section. After dropping the water level by about a centimeter or two, it hasn't happened again. The plastic dividers can be removed to allow the fish to have a flaring session. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNgo2006 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) Where are your fish shadoh, I don't see any in the barracks? One of my fish jumped into the back sump section (are they suicidal these fish? What if there is no water where they are jumping to?).

shadoh Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 No fish in those pics. I stripped the tank back on the weekend and ditched the gravel as I was planning on having the whole thing bare bottomed. Soon found out why I needed the gravel - the fish could swim sideways under the water return at the back . So back went the gravel. They are very suicidal. Have lost quite a few leaping out of my aqua one barracks onto the floor... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zui Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Suicidal is an understatement!!!!!!!!!!!. As for colour dividers I use black stainless steel mesh. No rust or heavy metal poisoning. Doesn't allow fish to see each other. :dance: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
