Creating new instances of SQL Server 2005 Express

Greetings,
I am trying to create new instances of sqlserver express (while the
default SQLEXPRESS is still there). How can i do that?
I'm trying to set up a development and production instance in one
machine. is this a right way to do it?
please advice.
am i doing the right thing? do people really do this? as in separating
development and production with the sql server instance?

Actually , it will be better if you would have a separated server for
developing. Make sure that you have enough memory on the server as each
instance will consume memory and it may hurt performance
