I bought this divider after my original (homemade) one broke and my two male bettas fought. My divider was made from those report cover binders much like what is in this product. The good thing about it though is that on the sides it is reinforced so the divider doesn't slip or have to be held up by gravel.The screen that comes with this is really flimsy and not suitable for two male bettas, as it was clear and they could see each other well. I took the plastic canvas (purchased at a craft store) from my original divider and set it up with that instead. Works really well!

This item fits perfectly in my ten gallon tank. It completely prevents the big fish from hurting the babies. Previously, I had a little fish fry cage within the tank, but that restricted the area that the babies could swim in. I also couldn't see my pets well, as the cage obstructed my view. Now the small fish have plenty of room to swim around and grow, and I can watch and enjoy them.Read Best Reviews of Lee`s Aquarium Tank Divider 10gal Here

This tank divider is comprised of 4 slotted strips of plastic, one plastic divider and 2 hooks. The dividers that go along the sides of the tank are more substantial than the ones that go across the top and bottom. The plastic divider is thin and flexible full of tiny holes to allow water circulation, and easily trimmed to fit your particular aquarium. My 10 gallon aquarium is a pretty standard rectangle, and this divider still needed a half inch trimmed off in order to fit correctly.I am using this divider to separate two bettas. They can clearly see each other through it. But they are small fish and can't do much to get at each other. I could see where a larger fish could, were he so inclined, swim at the divider with enough force (and I don't think it would take too much force) to push it out of the slots and free himself. The photo on the box shows a larger fish. I believe that fish could easily overcome this barrier if it tried.
The hooks that are holding it at the top are the same weight as a heavy duty paper clip. My least favorite thing about his divider is that the clips extend over the edge of the aquarium in the front and back. In the back the clip exits the lid through the same hole as my tank filter. In the front, the lid no longer sits flush because there is a wire clip sticking out of the middle of the tank. That's pretty lame.
However, what it comes down to is that it is effective (for my fish), to stays upright and doesn't move or fall over, and so far shows no sign of failing (it's been only a week).
