Has anyone ever wrapped their aquarium? I had a thought of wrapping an aquarium transparent yellow to counteract the blue lights kind of like permanent reef glasses. Anyone ever done this or have any thoughts on this?

I like the vibrant colors when those are added together. With white lights you just don't get the same colors.Go out of way and buy blue lights. Go out of way again to wrap tank so lights don’t look blue…
Any reason for not just adjusting colour balance of your fixture? Years ago I had a cube tank in guest bedroom that I wrapped in tint to cut down on light spill, ie not make the whole room look like **** lighting. Held up fine for years. Tint and vinyl can both be easily removed.
Should be able to push enough ultraviolet to get corals to fluoresce under what is considered white light if you fiddle with it enough. Either way tint will work fine. Several big name companies sell contrast films that do exactly what you’re trying to do.I like the vibrant colors when those are added together. With white lights you just don't get the same colors.
Interesting, I'm not looking to do it to my tank for the time being. Was more just curious if people had done it and if it worked.Should be able to push enough ultraviolet to get corals to fluoresce under what is considered white light if you fiddle with it enough.

Yeah lol not the look I was expecting... Looks like its in a tank of slime.You're not the 1st to think of this. I toyed with the idea and put a filter on the back panel of my tank.
Unfortunately it looked horrible 90% of the time and only looked decent with just the blues.
It was a good thought, with zero practicality.
Here are some photos of it draped over the front panel.
Nothing natural about that look.
That's a good way to describe it.Yeah lol not the look I was expecting... Looks like its in a tank of slime.
