AquaticEngineer Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 cool' date=' what color foam?[/quote'] Probably just the regular old foam for the majority of it and black foam around the edges that can be seen. The epoxy coating can be tinted and painted to any color. Getting some epoxy coating called 307 lite from a company called Polygem, they were referred to me by the Special Exhibit Coordinator at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

larrybeck Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 Mike - do you have a DIY thread on this out there? I've seen one of RC but it was more experimental whereas yours appears to be ready for prime time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReeFit Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 black looks better behind coraline algae because in the end it will win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 How about a mirror background... wonder what that'd look like... Careful with mirrors. It can really stress out fish badly. (I can put a mirror up to my tank and the tang will try to fight with the reflection) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
