backrounds

[Crazy_NDN]

where would be the best spot to hit up to get a backround for my 5foot 120g, nothing overly expensive. im looking into getting a rock'ish scenery for the back of my african tank. but i would like to hear your experiences on where is the cheapest, who has some nice backrounds. i thought about painting black or even putting a black backround but i feel i need something more exciting..

Oops, maybe this is better suited for Equipment talk section, if a mod feels the same way. please move it there

i was at IPU Burnaby this morning and they had some killer intank back grounds..
the one i looked at was only $25.
but i would check them out for sure.

what size roughly where you looking at?

Island Pets have a nice selection and you pay by the foot. We payed $25 for 4ftx24" for a rock background. It's very nice and has a 3D appearance.

@donjaun, im tempted to go black for a clean simple look.. but i want to see if i like a scenic backround first, i would just save it, if your like any of use your gonna change, get new tanks and you wont have to get some more

Wow. $25 for a sheet of background. I had that come with a used tank. I also spent $25 at Landscape Supply Centre for some nice flat rocks to stack up as a rock wall at the back to provide tons caves for my 25+ cichilids in a 90 Gallon.
