I WANT TO PAINT THE BACK OF MY TANK, BUT WHAT COLOR BLUE DO i USE?

[rainbowclownfish]

I'M LOOKING TO PAINT THE BACK OF MY GLASS TANK THAT PRETTY BLUE COLOR THAT THEY USE ON THE ACYRLIC TANKS.

HAS ANYONE DONE THIS LATELY ? WHAT TYPE AND COLOR OF PAINT DO i USE ? ANY TIPS?

I vote white!

Painters touch by rust oleum at Home Depot. Color is personal preference.

Use black instead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[rainbowclownfish]

White would be interesting..hmmm

 

[El Dude]

White would make every little bit of algae stick out like a sore thumb. I painted my current tank. I used a latex based deep blue. It will look lighter through the water and tank panels so keep that in mind. Oh one other thing...



LEARN TO TYPE WITHOUT ALL CAPS!!!!

Yep I agree with gums. Sometimes for whatever reason you may want to see the back and then you don't have to bust out the razor. I have seen people use dark felt with Velcro.

+1 on the Vinyl idea. Its easy to do and if you want to take it off later it is much easier. That being said, mines spray can painted black

 

[Calveezzzy]

The darkest blue I can find. Or you cam just do black.
