Background is on......phew !!!

[JVD BVI]

Not sure if anyone else feels this way but man what a nerve wracking experience it is putting on the aquarium background.

Starting a new tank and put on the standard black background I always use from Blue Life USA.

The backgrounds are great but its so tedious and nerve wracking , cutting it just right, positioning it just right, getting all the bubbles out, being careful not to damage it.......ugh....


But it looks good..................time for a well deserved beer :beer:

Is it solid black? if so, why did you elect for a stick-on background as opposed to painting the glass?

Maybe its a Northeast thing but putting on an aquarium background seems pretty normal while painting an aquarium background seems odd.

I like using black vinyl.

Plasti is just to easy and looks so good best part it just pulls right off if u don't want it.
