Hi so my tank came with a slick black vinyl on the back glass. However, the tank is built into a wall with the front for viewing and no access. The back side is in the garage with top access. So I will need to peel of that background to see inside while I clean etc.... what removable background in black that will look nice can I velcro or something on the tank? What have you guys done? Thanks
 
I think the best solution might be having some brackets on the top and bottom of the corners of the back of the tank, and then use a PVC board (maybe something like this: https://amzn.to/3Y1yE0C), or for a more budget friendly option, a rigid piece of carboard spray-painted with the type of black paint you want (could do flat black, gloss black, or any color you want, sky's the limit here... I'm envisioning being able to slide the panel in and out of the brackets for maintenance.
