LINLAN Plastic Aquarium Egg Crate Panel

Looking to divide areas in a fish tank or organise filter media? This PVC aquarium grid serves as a practical tank divider and egg crate for DIY filtration and bottom protection, suitable for both freshwater and marine aquaria. Corrosion-resistant and durable, it is designed for use with fish, shrimp and aquatic plants without affecting water quality. The panel is lightweight and will float unless fixed in place.

The grid layout and interlocking edges allow you to customise partitions to match your tank layout; utility scissors or wire cutters are recommended for clean trimming. Use the board to separate different filter media, create support layers under hardscape, or protect glass and substrate from sharp décor. When used to partition filter materials, arrange gaps to maintain good water flow so beneficial nitrifying bacteria can establish. For temporary fish isolation or breeding, secure the panel with suction cups (not included) or weight it under stones or driftwood to stop it moving.
