Hi

Not sure this is the right place to post but hopefully it is!

Basically my fish tank is in my art studio, which I can be in until the early hours of the morning sometimes - obviously the lights on in the room keep most of the fish awake, some just go to bed wrasses for example, but if the lights are on my puffer and scribble box are awake - at the moment I get around this by simply draping a towel over the whole thing...like you would for a bird cage, but would be interested in more aesthetically pleasing solutions if they exist? Open to ideas :D

Cheers
 
Depending on the amount of light spill you get but maybe a pvc frame with a sheet for a backdrop. If you do any photography it could also serve a dual purpose. If you have a canopy, maybe some curtain rods attached to the sides. If you have access to vinyl sheeting you could stick it right onto the sides or use suction cups to attach it to the glass.
