CalgaryFan Posted March 2, 2007 Report Share Posted March 2, 2007 I painted the back of my tank with black Acrylic paint, and I have to say I really like the outcome, it highlights the colors of the fish tremendously. BEFORE: AFTER: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vapor Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 Really brings your attention more to the inside of the tank, instead of the stuff hanging in the back. I really like black backgrounds. Looks great, nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrie Lee Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 A flat black background is really nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunl Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I spray painted my 75 last year like this, loved how it turned out. Did you spray paint it or roll it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalgaryFan Posted March 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 I decided not to spray it, since it was in my room and the windows were all sealed up with plastic for the cold. So I just squeezed some paint into a margarin container and put it on with a foam brush, and let me tell you that is easier said that done when you only have about 5" of arm room with a white wall behind it lol. Glad everyone likes it, I love the outcome myself :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
