FishWish 1,530 Posted January 10, 2014 It's now about three weeks since the tank transition so I thought I'd post before and after shots. Please excuse the reflection on the glass. Before…little 5 gallon on the office desk... After…29 gallons still located in our office for its zen like qualities…ha! Please note the craftiness of my black Oceanvisions background! And, the tension rod that will hold the curtain to hide all of the stuff underneath! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LisaCGold 1,691 Posted January 10, 2014 I love your rocks! I'm a bit of a rock hound. Good job on that background. It makes everything pop. Beautiful! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mernany 3,708 Posted January 10, 2014 I did the same thing with the curtain on my stand for the 110! I choose my own fabric and made a curtain. I love the look! I can't wait to see what you do with it! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishWish 1,530 Posted January 10, 2014 I did the same thing with the curtain on my stand for the 110! I choose my own fabric and made a curtain. I love the look! I can't wait to see what you do with it! Yes, exactly! I bought a yard of fabric and then goofed. Before I knew it, scissors were flying, and it was too small. See, I prefer to do things multiple times before getting them right. But, in a way, I am glad that happened because when I got the fabric home I didn't think the print went very well with the rest of the set up. So, hopefully next time it will be just right! -Erin 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

misshadies 0 Posted January 10, 2014 Love the tank! And i'm going to steal that tension rod idea (I have the same stand, and was wondering how I would house everything ) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yafashelli 9,540 Posted January 10, 2014 You and Lisa are making me want one of those backgrounds. LOL! New tank looks amazing, and they look like they've grown quite a bit. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FishWish 1,530 Posted January 11, 2014 Is that background like a mirror? no, it's just solid black...the reflection is from the lights being on in the room when i took the photo. Without a tank light, I haven't found any other way to get a picture. If you are looking for a background, I thought this one was really affordable and easy to work with. The brand is Oceanvisions...it comes in a few different shades of blue and black. You can google it. Also, Lisa (fantailfan1) has a thread here with step by step instructions on how to apply it. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
