Back Glass Cover ?

[brianguz760]

What's up guys. I've been really on my tank as of lately just been getting refocused on it and I wanted to cover the back board glass in some way to where you won't see any hoses or cables. And I do not want to spray paint it. Any advice on what I can do ? Thanks in advance guys. Any advice is good advice . thanks again !

Paint it with an interior can of paint from your local hardware store. You can pickup a cheap roller/brush set from walmart or something similar. Some prefer flat black, some flat blue. Google images of each and see which you prefer. :cool:

Go to Home Depot/Lowes and grab one of those plastic panels that goes over fluorescent lights, http://www.lowes.com/pd_197954-1638-1430083A___?productId=3307652&pl=1&Ntt=fluorescent+light+panel
Cut it to fit the back of your tank, paint it whatever color you want, then slide it in. I attached mine with clear packing tape across the bottom and sides.

You can get creative with shades of blue and fade it to black. The panel I have has a crackled look to it that adds some depth.
