Mikey 6,780 Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Thanks!!! @Tammy What do you mean? lol the paint? If so, then yes I need to repaint it with beeter paint that is um errr more water proof and that won't scratch when you take your filter off what would you recommend? Maybe craft paint with a clear coat over it and then background over that with the top siliconed so water doesn't slip down into it? Very nice! I like it! Is it as dark of a blue as you wanted? Forgot to quote lol but I answered I think what you asked Edited July 9, 2014 by Mikey 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forgot to quote lol but I answered I think what you asked Didn't you get the Estes Blue Marine Sand? For the background, go to Michaels (or Walmart) and buy the cheapest craft paint that you can find. Sponge roll it on, until you get good coverage, and then put an old aquarium background over it to protect it from the filters. Works great for me! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
