Ok, maybe its because of all of the threads,

a recurring nightmare! Ok, I'm serious. Every night for the past 3 nights I have had a recurring dream that one of my bettas jumps their divider, or pushes it away, and fights one of my other bettas. One always ends up dieing, and it has made me uber paranoid. Gosh, you people freak me out! Lol. I find that every 5 minutes I'm running up to my room to check on everyone.

Gosh, re reading that makes me realize how sadly strange I am.

Aww. Well, this forum can frighten one so! Gosh, ignorance is bliss. Hehe. Well, I am going to relocate myself and my laptop upstairs to my room directly infront of my tank and sit there ALL day, and maybe after 24 hours I will cure myself.

Well, the way the lid is on my tank, there isn't much way they could jump. They would hit the lid. And it is a secure partition, but still I am paranoid. Grr. I am going to have to make sure the lid is nice and low, and just make everything so secure I can't move it and maybe I'll stop.

you could do what i now do and stretch a pair of tights/stockings over the top

It is a 30 gallon tank, it would have to stretch a LOT!


Well, anyhow, I fixed my paranoia. I picked up a ton of sheets of craft canvas yesterday, so I'd have them if I needed them, and I aquarium sealed some toghether, and cut them in different ways, and it makes a nice little lid tht rests RIGHT on top of my dividers, and under my light hood. I cut 3 little squares over each section for feeding. Now, even if they wanted to, they cannot jump ANYWHERE. muahaha, I have outsmarted them.
