the bulbs can be replaced with aquarium bulbs.

Why do people not use these?

Will acrylic bond to glass?

I want to make a divider in a 5 gallon glass tank and I'm trying to figure out if I should use glass or acrylic.

Will the acrylic bond to the glass using silicone?

Lions and puffers

I've heard differing opinions on keeping lions and puffers together.

Does anyone do this or is it a bad idea?

And if so, which varieties work well together?

Thanks.
