I used to have a fake tile background. I did a crappy putting it in. After a year it started to peal I took it off and I am stuck with this ugly blue background. I hate the look of my tank with it. Its a 125 with tinfoil barbs and lima nose so draining it an moving it to scrape it off is not an option.

What can I do to get a new background? One idea was to paint an acrylic sheet black and use magnets to hold it. I like the 3d backgrounds but I am not going to spend $250 dollars on one. I am not artistic or motivated enough to do it myself.

I have a black background and with the right lights the fish really pop
 
My 125 has slimlines from designsbynature and were only around $100-120. Very easy and quick to install in an established tank.
