Hey guys. Just seeing what the best material to use on the back of my reef tank? I really like the material that the companies use but wasn't sure what it was. Hope someone can help. Thanks guys!

Have you considered painting the back? Sorry, I don't know what the specific material is that is used but I would assume any laminated paper would work.

I used spray paint on mine.
I imagine almost any water proof material would work though :)
