no. lol I just went through the same thing. Check out my 450 thread it's 30". I had to build up the base with styrofoam to make the background fit.
My 360 thread I had to double the background because the tank is 44" from top to bottom.

^ that is what I am doing for my 300 gallon as well. I will have the pics of mine up by next weekend if you want to wait to see a 24" BG on a 30" tall tank. Just in case it you don't like how it looks on mine lol.
I used a 24" and put hanging silk plants to cover the top

One of my tanks that are 30" tall with 3d background on a 260.
the background was 24" and I cut one long length and used at the bottom. Because of the height of the tank I thought it would be less noticable to have the join at the base.
Big PIA job . I also had to cut around to bulkhead inlet fittings and glass bulkhead. This background is quite thin and flat and very unforgiving when installing.
End result wasn't perfect but pretty good for the effort. A few little waves on the back but it looks natural.
