I love it when a plan comes together...

I'm currently putting a few new fish through QT in my Biocube 29. I have a super awesome harlequin tusk that is just awesome, a large flame angel and a midas blenny. All from Jeff. 

 

Everyone is doing great but the flame angel is just absolutely terrorizing the harlequin. I was letting it go in hopes that they would settle things and learn to coexist but the harlequin was just pacing nonstop and finally tonight wouldn't come down from a top corner. So that's not good.

 

Then I raided my supplies bin and found an old net/eggcrate top that somehow magically fits at a perfect angle across the tank. So I toss it in and boom - both fish are just swimming around their respective halves. (The midas doesn't bother anyone and doesn't seem to be bothered at all).

Harlequin has been down and swimming around much more normally. Angel is pissed off pacing trying to get at him. All good.

 

BUT - I think I have to take the flame back and exchange for a new one. This one is just too mean. I can't put him in the 200...I'll never get him out.

 

Anyway - problem solving is 99.9% of this hobby and i was proud of myself so I felt like sharing. Normally it's just something I did that's dumb.
