    Do check ur own dimension before you head down there.
    It may not suit your size, but you can always cut to suit

    C328 have... On the floor in front of where all the medication and stuff are... All kind of sizes, you slowly choose... Got coloured ones too, so be careful while you select them, don't buy the coloured ones if you looking for clear ones...

    You can also ask the shop (C32 to cut to your exact size if need be. And you can choose if you want holes to be drilled to allow water flow.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    My recommendation is that you use a black opaque plastic divider if you are intending to seperate your aggresive fishes. I had 2 luohans in a tank before and they would go at each other, even over the divider.

    "ArtFriend" on 3rd level of Bras Basah Complex has all types of acrylic sheets - clear, mirrored, blue, black (in 2mm or 3mm thickness, but 2mm will do just fine). You can even buy the acrylic cutter at about $10 and cut it to your desired size. I suggest you cut it in 凸 shape instead of 口 shape, leaving only a gap for the divider-holder, otherwise all your little fries will slip through. Avoid getting those dividers with pre-cut holes from LFS

    they have many sizes, should be able to fit most tanks that we have. To give you an indication, a 18" X 24" clear acrylic with 2mm thickness cost $8.30.
    Most LFS with pre-cut acrylics have gaping holes and gaps which allows fries & shrimplets to slip through and were promptly devoured by the bigger fishes

    You can always stick the filter floss into the holes to prevent fauna swimming through. Like what NA does.
