Ok... Here Is MY DIY For Them... Coming Soon!

First Step:
Hold Report Binder And I Place 2 cm lines of silicone on the top middle and bottom of each one.

Second Step:
Place inside the tank and make sure its straight. (had to wiggle mine a bit but i still think i got mine out of line though :( )

Third Step:
I Have Added A Heater Next to The Tank... Dont Know How Sufficient It Will Be But Im Still Going To Leave For The 48 Hours As It Says :)

Ok. so ive done one side of the tank... think it has gone ok so far... I think they are a bit out of line though.. shouldnt be too much of a problem... just need to get the stuff to divide it up now.

Were you planning on filling the tank all the way? <- was wondering how much space you had between each divider XD
 
Bret. how many are you going to put in there? how much room will they have? Cant tell from photo.
 
Each section is the same width as those 1 Gallon Kritter Keepers but it also have a 45 cm swimming space lengthways.... i am not going to fill all the way up as i have some old VT boys going in... its going to have gravel, plants and all in it so should look nice when done. And they have just over 3 gallon each. Theyll all have hornwort and stuff in it so it should look REAL nice when done... It Will Hold 8 Bettas Plus 1 Section For 2 Filters, And A Heater :)

Nice job should look reall good when finished keep posting make this into one of those diary things where we can follw your progress
 
Hmm do you have bracing at the top of the tank Bret? Hope its not going to be akward putting the craft canvas in now you've already silliconed the binders in place. I put mine together first then glued them in place :rolleyes:
 
Yeah i Do Have Bracing But Im Hoping The Sealant Will Be Strong Enough So I Can Push The Mesh In At An Angle :)
