I always see everyone with the cool backgrounds on their tanks. Well, I need them!! Where has everyone gotten them from??

Oh and I picked up two 30 gallon tanks today for 15 bucks each (yay craigslist!!) We'll see what will eventually go there!!

hmmm..i've used alot of things...wrapping paper with a jungle theme is nice and cheap, or you can buy fishtank backgrounds by the foot usually at petstores.

I think I might blow up some of the pictures that i've taken to use as backgrounds..it would give them a more personalized feeling....i just had a great idea...thanks for making me think of it!

I hand painted mine. I just looked up some rainforest photos and tried to make it look something like that. With some fake plants, humus substrate and real branches it looks OK.


Let us know what you come up with!

I like the homemade idea! Could you make a cool collage using pictures cut from a nature or travel magazine on a piece of poster board? Maybe you could find a piece of fabric at the sewing store that looks neat?
