Anybody know where to get nice internal backgrounds?

What I am talkig nabout is a background that is made of rock or somethjing that gives depth and reality to a tank instead of the paper backgrouns that you can tape to the back of the tank.

I used to have a 20 gall or so tank that had this beautiful rock slate type thing that you coudl hang on the back of the tank. The fish could swim and hide in some of the rocks and it was just beautiful. I do nto see them anymore and wondered if anybody know more about them.


Where are they offered?

What are the prices for these things?

Also all I see is the backgrounds made of fake material. Do they still make any real ones of rock?

no, I dont think so, it's all solid foam stuff...

Foam is better anyhoo, cause there's no risk of felling death to the fish

I have seen many a beautiful tank using this foam, it is painted very realistically!

yeah, plus who uses rock, it's so heavy

 

[jasno999]

Yeah but rock is real and natural and jsut solid. IT is somehting that holds up and is passed down and is not flimsey.
