Best way to color the back wall of a tank

[target]

I used krylon fusion spray paint. spray on multiple thin coats until its fully covered. I've heard of people using plastidip which I plan to try for my next tank.

acrylic sheet , I prefer white as it accents the lighting nicely . That is as long as your tank is empty . Vinyl works but you have to use outside so you still see your overflows . Acrylic you can use in the tank and cover the entire wall .

I think I like the idea of plastidip. I hadn't even thought of that.

I like the idea of black acrylic on the whole back wall... that is until you're trying to scrape coraline and algae off of it.

I was thinking it might be ok to be able to see into the overflow. Let's me see that its clean and clear. Down the road I could always just cut a piece of black acrylic to go in the overflow if I didnt like seeing into it. Although then you would still see where the overflow attaches to the back of the tank and that probably would not look great.

How did you attach the acrylic to the back of the tank? I'm guessing it never gets removed from the tank?

I used some black spray paint I had lying around.
On every tank I’ve ever set up.

I have black vinyl on mine. That being said I’m sure any of the options suggested will give you the desired effect.
