I swear I've seen it somewhere before. XD
Two seperate 5 gallons, or one with a seperator? Money is for me too... :c That's why I'm hinting my parents on about gettign a tank for some special day. (My birthday.) X3

I'm not exactly sure what Dez is, but I think he's a Delta Tail as well. ^_^ Dez loves to hide in his coral tunnel. My Crowntail (Romo) just passed away. :'C I've always wanted a Dragon, but I can never find them!

Dragons are cute and squishy. XD But don't really squish them...
I stuck my finger in Dante's tank and he was like "Wut?" And he kept on swimming around my finger, coming really close, then swimming around it...
I stuck my finger in Royal's tank, and he started lashing at me - he charged at me and kept on trying to eat my finger. He did it like, forever... he would swim away, and then swim as fast as he could towards me and chomp on my finger. XD I actually felt it... it tickled!

I don't stick my fingers in my fishes' tank. XD I'm super afraid of hurting one of them or making the water dirty or diseased. D: (I'm an odd person, don't judge. XD) I tried to train Dez to jump, but he's too lazy. Haha. Although I can put my finger up to the tank and he'll swim along side it. ^_^

Hey Twisted, I came across this tank a few months back when I was planning my planted tank. I was going to use it for a betta and a few galaxy rasbora.. But I'd be perfect for a divided tank and its cheapish. http://www.petco.com/product/14978/PETC ... 1b2166c62d It's roughly a 7 gallon, however very long and kinda shallow. Betta fish prefer length over height any day so its no big deal. Also, you'll probably have to switch out the filter.. Which you can just sell it or something. Two Tetra 3i would work: http://www.petsmart.com/product/index.j ... Id=2752355 and then you could use an egg crate divider http://www.oscarfish.com/articles/lib/e ... gcrate.jpg and they're SUPER cheap and easy.... Just some ideas. xD! You'd only need one heater closeish to the middle and it should keep both sides pretty the correct temp.

Wow, thanks Cardinal! And a family I babysit for got one of those dividers... The male somehow got through and almost killed the female. >.< But I will look into that, thanks!

Totally welcome, I just don't want you to feel pressured by my ideas or anything. xD Anyways, egg crating can be iffy for some people, but I know quite a few people that have used them with success. I think its important to make sure the bottom is covered in substrate, it fits snugly on the sides, and it reaches all the way to the top and touches the hood. That way theres no jumping over, no going under, and its to tight to swim around. I've heard of people attaching suction cups to the sides.. Not sure how thats done

The 15 gallon is around 80 and the 30 its normally around 78-79. =)

We had a storm come through that knocked out power for a couple of days. My takns went BELOW 68. x.x I had to keep rotating hot water bags and floating them.
