This thread will be dedicated to my 75G mbuna tank. I'm in the process of building a DIY background. I plan on painting the back of the tank with a flat black latex paint.

Here's the beginning of the module layout. No cement yet, just styrofoam so far. Any suggestions are welcome. I will be building a few more "rocks" to put in the foreground and midground of the tank.

Wow! Very cool! I love those diy backrounds. Keep the pics coming!!!!!!
 
I'm still working on the rocks, I haven't been able to get to home depot to pickup more styrofoam in order to finish them, but I should be able to have them done by Saturday. The color of the rocks will be a little darker when I'm finished, in order to match the rock in the Malawi Lake bed.

It's not siliconed in yet, but this will be the final design and layout of the rocks. I have a few rubble pieces that I have yet to put in, but I figured I'd get a picture for you guys of the progress so far.
