How do you get the background glack

[PeterD]

I have been wondering how to get the background black becasue I have seen some great photos with the black background.
Thanks everyone

by painting it. either by spraypaint or normal black paint. some people also buy window tint from walmart or just tape black background to the back. mine i personally painted with normal paint.

thanks I'll have to tape on a background because I have started up my tank already

you paint the outside

 

[johnsonlee42]

you can buy black wallpaper that you can just tape to the back

I painted mine with latex paint, if you want it off you just peel.

you can still paint it even though your tank is up if you have access to the back just dont spray it, use a roller.

photoshop your pics

I used blue poster board, this way I can always change the background color if I get sick of the blue or if the color fades.

I use Oceanvisions adhesive backgrounds. You apply w/soap & water like car window tinting. Sticks really well & you can apply while tank is up & running. I also run a thin bead of sealant around edges. Believe they come in black & 2 shades of blue.
