I was thinking about adding a zipper on the back of my Fish Butts half silicone-half neoprene tail to make it easier to get it on and off, but the problem is, I don't know how. I have a dorsal fin on the back which is basically a piece of neoprene coated in silicone.
So any ideas? I don't want to destroy my tail. :/

most people put on like a double dorsal, and put the zipper in between the two pieces. I'm just not sure how to affix it though...

You might have to do it on the side. If there's a dorsal and it wasn't designed to have the zipper there, I'd worry that putting a zipper up against the dorsal might make it flop or tilt to one side.

Ponytales: It already does that. lol

Ugh. This actually seems more complicated than I would like it to be. :P

yeah dorsals will always flip to one side unless they're really short and thick I've found
