Aquarium Background

[Curraheemedicus]

Hello,

I have a four month old 150 72" long 25.5" tall, and I never put a background on it. I obviously can't spray it. What do you recommend? I have about 4" of room behind the tank.

Thanks

The reason why I ask is because all of the tape on backgrounds I find are 24" tall. So there would be a 1.5" gap.

Put the gap on the bottom below the sand? Assuming you have sand.

I have a "static" sand bed and I am probably going to take it all out tbh.

Not necessarily the cleanest, but I’ve used poster board (taped together) and the Science Fair display boards (not sure what they’re called, again taped together. My back wall gets algae covered anyway so usually there’s minimal issues

The thinnest piece of acrylic you can buy taped to the rear.

Find someone with a plotter and print a picture of a reef that will "extend" your tank?
