if you are doing an inwall then access and ability to view from the back is something to be considered. I know it was for me.
My DT is inwall and all access/fish room / equip access is behind that.
I wanted a black background but I needed to be able to see in when I had too.
Took a few months of thinking, perking, pondering then finally figured out what works for us.
I bought 2 large sheets of the corrugated plastic ( like they use for signs) and carefully cut them to fit around all the stuff on the exterior of the back wall of the tank. Then i spray painted them black with many thin coats of paint.
Can slide them off when I need access/view......put them on when I want the black background look.
worked like a dream and very glad I didn't rush into a solution that wouldn't have worked out nearly as well.
