Hi, No partition done for this tank. I placed it in my living room wanted it to look natural. Something to relax my eyes from hectic work. LOL

Not necessary, I placed wool and bio sponge hence its easier for me to do monthly maintenance rather than opening up my main cannister all the time. Plus it can first filter off the dirt and debris.

I would also added the shrimp supplements there too instead of directly into the water.

You mentioned chiller used is a HS66A. When placed in a living room, do you try to hide the chiller?

Cannot really hide as when this chiller is running, hot air comes out of it, it's side by side with my cannister now
