How to divide tank?

[Sonny]

I've been getting mixed signals on how to seperate male and female axies. I just want a clear answer to make sure they stay safe.

A bit of context is I have a male and female axie who haven't attempted to mate at all, the male attacked the female and now I wish to seperate them.

Can I just use a standard tank separator (with small holes) to keep them apart and prevent cannibalism and mating? Or so I need to completely seal off the two?

A tank divider will be sufficient so long as you get one that’s large enough that it comes above the water and reaches the bottom of the tank. I had the same thing happen with my axies where the male bit the hand off of the female. I got a tank divider that was a bit too small and at first the female dug her way through the sand substrate, underneath the barrier and went and visited the other side, and then when I lowered it they just jumped over it on the top. So as long as you get one large enough then you’ll be fine. I suggest one that is a bit too large as you can cut it down to make it fit perfectly if need
